No Cloth

This morning the SE wind came down considerably. This wind is responsible for the so-called cloth on the table mountain. Warm air is pushed into colder regions and condenses. This condens formes the table cloth formed clouds on top of the table. Legend attributes this phenomenon to a smoking contest between the Devil and a local pirate called Van Hunks. When the table cloth is seen, it symbolizes the contest. The tanker in the foreground is an former Dutch manned one, it is called the Selje (ex Jo Selje) and my brother used to be a captain on this ship.
