Cape of Good Hope
Today we visited Cape of Good Hope. A special place, where the Atlantic and Indian oceans (nearly) meet. It radiates a peculiar kind of energy. We had beautiful weather, so it was a pleasure driving in our Disco. We stopped in Simons Town to watch the penguins and their nearly grown-up babies. Very odd to walk so close and in between penguins in their nests.
We drove up further towards the Cape; it resides inside Table Mountain National Park, which was open until sunset. We missed the sign to the actual cape, so we first visited the old lighthouse. Lasse and Sil stayed at the car park, feeding the red-winged birds as Lasse wasn't feeling too well. Peter walked up to the lighthouse, from where you have a magnificent view. It's not really the point where two oceans meet; this is further towards the east.
Finally we stopped at the actual Cape of Good Hope. A real nice landmark. Lasse and Sil climbed up the rock face, which was rather steep, so Peter followed suit, while Claudia performed some yoga. Great waves braking on the rocks, a pretty sight and place to be. We got out of the park just before sunset (and thus did not have to pay a R 500 fine). As it was getting late and dark, we bought some junk food and ate it in the car. There goes rule #1: never drive in the dark. We have to get better at planning. But it was all worth the effort.

Hoi allemaal,
We hebben jullie al enige tijd gevolgd. De foto's zijn erg mooi.We kunnen wel zien, dat jullie het naar je zin hebben. De beide jongens kijken zeker wel hun ogen uit. Hebben ze nog wel zin in schoolwerk?
Goede reis verder en veel plezier nog. We blijven jullie zeker volgen.
Groetjes Joke en Lodewijk
Hoi Lasse
Tycho mist je en heel de klas.
We zijn vandaag naar de boerderij geweest.
En het stonk er heftig.
En de koe die we moesten heeft Boris D geschopt.
Maar heb je het leuk daar?
