In the surrounding streets of Langa, only a handful of runners or recreational walkers could be seen.
On the Atlantic Seaboard, there were thinner crowds on the Sea Point promenade than on Day 1 yesterday.
Light sea spray from a crashing swell mixed with thick fog through which the Mouille Point lighthouse could be seen signalling ships to beware of the rocky coastline.
Exercisers took every shape and form – from a young man on a skateboard being towed by his dog to a young boy with his father who was admonished by a City of Cape Town law enforcement officer because his son did not wear a mask.
The child appeared perplexed, as he wore a face mask – one which covered his eyes, as worn by comic-book heroes, but not his nose or mouth.
The officers were seen ordering several runners to leave the area as they had no masks either.
Jacobus Bantam, who is homeless, was hopeful he would land a few donations – especially considering his 60th birthday was next week, on 8 May.
Next to him, several homeless people appeared annoyed by the passing chatter, making it difficult to “lie in” on the Saturday morning.
