BOULDERS & CAPE OF GOOD HOPE



Rain on the forecast. The goal is to see some penguins visit the southernmost point in Africa and go wine tasting. Hopefully the penguins aren’t afraid of a little rain. They weren’t.



We really enjoyed watching this little penguin. As you can see it's missing a foot, it only has a stump. Who know's what happened to it but, that didn't stop it from going down to the water and going for a swim. Nothing can stop you if you really want it!




Little swimming birds in tuxedos
A bus of delegates arrived and everyone wanted their pic
It was really windy!!!



Can you see the surfers?
This beach is for windsurfers
Trying to do our time some how.
How many hours should we count for this?



Is she trying to tell me something?


When we arrived at the Cape of Good Hope we kept seeing beware of Baboons signs. We we’re hoping to get to see them, from a safe distance of course. The place is very scenic great pics but that’s about it. We found a little beach where Leti got sand from. Part of her collection of beach sands of the world. We left a little advertising for the campaign and then…


Our first wildlife sighting in Africa.



I just looked up and saw these two Baboons about 200’ away from us. I have to admit, I got a little scared. Specially if you are constantly reminded by signs that they can get aggressive and dangerous. We kept our distance and so did they but, my camera went into overdrive.



Everyone wanted a pic of the baboon

All he wanted was to take in the scenery







One of the first shanty towns we saw. There's nothing around here but the cape of good hope. So this must be where all the workers and artisans that sell their goods outside of the park, live.


We didn't realize that we still had quite a drive to the winelands. We arrived just before they started closing so we got to visit one winery that was recommended by some brothers. Very nice!


We enjoyed Cape Town very much. The sites were amazing the town was nice and the brothers were friendly. We hope we get to come back to this beautiful city.
