Last day in Cape Town

Initially when I booked four days in Cape Town I thought it might be a mistake and I would run out of things to do but I am leaving here today and I still have things on my to do list so I guess I may have to come back sometime.
Today I caught the cable car up Table Mountain, the views from the top are amazing. A number of people walk up and I would like to do that next time but I won't be abseiling down like some loonies do. It pays to get there early in the day, I had no delays but there were long queues when I got down at 11:30. From there I went to Kirstenbosch Gardens, Jan would have loved the place, not only was it beautiful but it was interesting to learn how many of our garden plants originate here in South Africa.
Tonight's dinner venue was Headquarters, there is no evening menu just a green salad starter followed by steak and chips, my kind of place. The one drawback was the crooner who walked around the restaurant mangling Frank Sinatra songs, fortunately he only started as I was finishing my meal, I didn't stay for coffee.
Why do they call it Table Mountain?
