Visited Table Mt several years ago Janaline. What a gloriously beautiful spot. We dared to take the cable car to the top and truly enjoyed the scary ride! But seeing the fog roll over the mountain top was a once-in-a-lifetime thrill! Thanks for the memory.
Its a rock hyrax or rock badger, also called the Cape hyrax and commonly referred to in South African English as the dassie. I have come across them in Israel as well.

You should have some wild flowers for my garden theme this month Janaline. I’d love to see some of those proteas 🙂

I agree Tina. It is hard to explain to people how fast the fog just rolls over the mountain and covers the whole place.
