Like the cool wedding on the beach, and the amazing shanty towns on the edge of Cape Town - WOW - what a way to live!!! The sunset is here in Hermanus - sorry the pix of our room came out darker than on my Picassa! The yellow building is the guest villa we are in. Just had to add this 'cause when I went back and added the pix, there wer some I hadn't mentioned.
Keep in mind I am doing this 3rd world country style - 2 computers and a memory stick.
Tomorrow we're off to George to start our trip along the Garden Route. We will be going to the ostrich farm (to ride or not to ride is the question!!!) and a place where you get up close and personal with the big cats!!
Tom was ready to go swimming in the cage with the sharks today, but missed the boat, so to speak. By the time we found out about it at breakfast (an Aussie kid had gone yesterday - said it was quite the adrenaline rush!!) OUR GUEST HOUSE OWNER CALLED BUT THE BOAT HAD LEFT. Poor Tom, was really up for it - oh well, the ostrich ride will probably put his back out just as much!
Interesting re: safety here, the lady of the house here just told me that the beautiful paved walkway along the beach in front of our window should not be walked by a woman alone even in broad daylight.
YIKES - I was going to do that today and then had a sleep instead - sometimes you get saved. I was shocked to hear this - looks just like the path in Maui along the ocean that I walk alone every morning at 7 AM. - and the one in front of our condo in Victoria - I could not endure this lack of freedom!!
I hope the Private Game Reserve will let us relax on this being afraid of 2 legged animals - the 4 legged ones sound less dangerous!!!!
