South Africa "A World in One Country"

Today we woke up after being stuck at a crossroad last night in trying to decide if we should rent a car and drive the garden route, or to do a hop on hop off bus tour of the garden route.  We listed the pros and cons of each, we figured out approximately how much time we would need for what we want to do and decided to come to a decision after we had something to eat.
We took the local bus to Camps Bay, which is a "sophisticated" beachfront town where we had breakfast and finally just decided to rent a car and drive the route.    For our "victory decision" we hopped on another local bus about 30 minutes away to the last stop in a fishing town called Hout Bay.  It's a gorgeous spot, with the beach on one side and the mountains on the other.  We walked around a bit then grabbed some drinks overlooked the breathtaking landscape.  

We headed back to our place, had a bit of a chill night because we have to get up early to pick up our rental car.  We want to be alert and on point.  We are a bit nervous about the crazy driving here and the fact that they drive on the opposite sides of the street.
