I took a similar photo. Cape Point is impressive. I was just there and hiked up to the lighthouse rather than ride the funicular, and then had lunch at the restaurant there. The views from the restaurant are stunning and brought back memories of a restaurant on the cliffs of Santorini.

The wild baboons on the Cape are aggressive. I have photos of a pack of wild baboons walking down the road, and the alpha-male baboon was carrying a cell phone! He sat down in the middle of the road and was playing with it like he was going to ring someone up. It was funny! My South African guide told me that unsuspecting tourists that have snacks in their backpacks often have their backpacks stolen by the baboons, and that is probably where the baboon got the cell phone.
