Cape Peninsula

Pick up at 8.15am and made our way to the Most South Western Point Of Africa. Was only 5 of us on it, 2guys & 3 girls. First stop was at Hout Bay, for a boat trip to see a seal Colony @ cost of 2.5 quid.There was about the same if not more there, than in Fishermans Wharf, California. back to the road trip, Doe our guide gave us info on all the places we passed.
Stopped for lunch at the info centre and got to know our fellow travellers. French Canadian & the rest of us from England but 1 originally from Down Under.
Drove to the Point of Good Hope & trekked up the mountain for bout half hour, windy. Reached the top and Doe was there already.Had a look around the shop & had an ice cream before setting off back down on bikes. Stopped at the info centre but then John & I carried onto the gate of Good Hope entrance. Hard & Tiring but would do me the world of good.
Back on track & made our way to Boulders, home to a colony of African Penguins. Hundreds of them !!!!
Onward bound, i was dropped off first just after 6pm. had been a long day but nice viewings/sights.
