Touwwwwn!!!

Cape Town is such a lovely place. There's so much to do and so much to see...even right now while it's the winter season.

I named this post "Touwwwn!!!" because that's what the drivers on the mini-taxis shout as they try to pick up passengers from the surrounding areas, going toward Cape Town. They're pretty loud and enthusiastic as they make their calls. This is my photo collection from my pretty enthusiastic trip around the Cape Town peninsula over these past several days...

Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens, Groot Constantia Winery, Simon's Town (Boulder Beach, where the South African penguins are), University of Cape Town, Rhodes Memorial, Views of Cape Town, Bo Kaap (samosas and malva pudding with ice cream)

Oh and I have to say that I am a little bummed that I didn't make it to Cape Point. That was supposed to be a stop on the road tour after the Boulder Beach penguins...but we didn't get to Cape Point (the Cape of Good Hope) until just after sunset. So we missed the park (it closes at sunset). But I can at least say that I've been there. I was at the southern most tip of Africa.
