suffering from the travel restrictions of the coronavirus and demick. places that we hope to be able to visit again soon without restrictions. what could be better than hugging a fountain and your old friend. checked in viewers from around the world present sightseeing highlights in their home countries. our 1st stop is cape town south africa. the name is like my last name is zoom up this is my neck and neck of the woods in cape town it's known as longer one of the oldest black african townships in the western cape it's a beautiful feat of lyric tory what the gallery $69.00 literally behind me generally this area would be fulled with guess what people however what the cover of night in situation is currently dry and drab but i'm going to take you to

a little bit of the city at my favorite spot in the city of cape town and show you my neck of the woods. within the city center longstreet's which is pretty much of why been part of cape town central business district for what makes it special is that it's the funky but it's where all the clubs are your 18 to 30 five's come and play and for akira your urbanites off to work towards generally have grabbed a boy here. where . company gardens just on the right hand side where in an average day this would be fooled with tourists and locals alike that take a day break out of the hectic city and buzz in the city and just catch a breath with in this majestic gardens people generally come and feed squirrels in the garden as you can see pigeons egyptian piece in and around here.

we are now are on the gateway to table mountain a real cable way of course that's also been closed even from here it is amazing view of the city it's pretty much a blessed spot in the city center. the waterfront is it's a mall attract the most the best kept secret about it it's still the working dockyard it's one of southern africa all this working dockyards. so this is where we catch the ferry to the island robben island used to be a place where political prisoners are late of the statesman also mandela spent a couple of years there so it was quite a pivotal point for me growing up as a young teenagers of 13 and 14 when mandela was freed to post 994 where we kind of

caught freedom are i wasn't quite eligible enough to vote i wasn't kind of 18 years old but i kind of saw the queues of people certainly non whites blacks colored indians and the like for the 1st time having the chance to put an x on the ballot paper so that was quite there was quite a momentous occasion in the history of south africa. even though a particle off in 1900 voted post 994 you're not going to take the income inequality off the city's divide away in 25 years and probably take a generation or 2 to undo that. this is where they classified people on whether you were black you were watching a college you indian so this is the non whites only bench. and this is why it's only bench how i can also hear ya ok folks we've done wrapping up in the city center of cape town c.b.d.

now we're back to my neck of the woods in the quadrangle and going through the restaurant where i normally serve people then as in the evening that. get into to the covert 900 situation displace is a good sport about 99 percent of the patrons that come to this restaurant are international guests hopefully once the school is over we'll have you wining and dining with us here in the restaurant in beautiful cape town and monica the woods and young and have fun with us. i'm going to show you out on somebody's knee welcome to my. son during the savoy conic cross such a pilot in the south and. normally would complain about over tourism but this year because of the button they have me that it is empty. so this is one of the more

famous pictures from this island the famous blue dome and feel so funny with a volcano in the background the dome symbolizes the sky basically the vault of the sky and the cases painted blue circle of the have a number of churches we have this many more. so something has for the religious i recommend besides the big fear. the smaller villages. it's delicious not to make on the whole you beat a horse and then bore you yet at the moment a number you know. this is supposed to be icy so beloved beaches i don't think. it's something to be just

on black because of the black mark on the gosh but there's also one more beach but this red thread because i'm tied on all sides. clearly finance capital and the commercial center more money on these places would be open and talk should have a very busy but given the circumstances most of them are closed and therefore poem that definitely not this. couple that you saw the probable market just the 1st of october the mean time because it. sort of this is here and one of the more spike on except the months off the islands with one of the more stuff photographed sunsets and the wart normally behind me over $3000.00 people would gather for watching the sunset this fewer people would
