After being questioned by airport security, getting directed to wrong terminals (twice), getting frisked by a lovely young security lady, and 23 hours of being trapped in a flying metal object... we are here! We arrived in Cape Town 2 days ago and found our way to a friend of a friend's house (thank you greg!). They've been wonderful to use and have given us lots of great advise for traveling. They even cooked us an amazing meal last night - Springbok! yum. :)
Yesterday Abby and I took the train along the coast toward the cape and watched breaching whales feeding ridiculously close to the shoreline. Then we found our way with a little help to the african penguins! Aaaannnnddd (wait for it)..... I got video of some hump action! It was beautiful. Birds are so exciting.
Today we might try to head up Table Mountain if the weather permits... looks iffy. Then we leave on the BAZ bus Sunday and head up the coast toward Johannesburg via Swaziland with a detour in Mozambique. And four days in Kruger just before we fly to Zambia on the 30th.
I miss everyone. Meet me in Africa.
