New Year's Eve in Cape Town 2015-2016

It seems like just the other day that I was looking for ideas for NYE in Cape Town, and yet here I am, a year later, putting together a guide to New Year’s Eve in Cape Town 2015/2016. Time really has flown, hasn’t it? I don’t know about you, but all in all, this has been a pretty good year. With that said, I am looking forward to winding things down as we prepare for a brand new year of good things.
