Day One 
On our first day we visited the botanical gardens to see Table Mountain. We also had an orientation and walked around Cape Town. The next stop was to tour the University of Western Cape. After we went to the waterfront and had lunch outside by the harbor, went shopping and picked up groceries at a nearby mall. Tonight we have the night off to check out a restaurant near our apartment complex.
