By 8 a.m. the van slips through Cape Town’s awakening suburbs and the Atlantic presses like a living thing against the window—waves daring you to look away. The first hour is a visual crescendo: Sea Point’s promenade, the white teeth of Clifton’s small bays and the sweeping arc of Camps Bay. Chapman’s Peak arrives suddenly, a ribbon of road cut into vertiginous rock that forces everyone in the vehicle to breathe slower and point their cameras.
