IN AND AROUND CAPE TOWN

View Larger Map

We left Penguinville and headed down to the Cape of Good Hope, which many people think is the most southern point, but thanks to my adventures you now know that it is Cape Agulhas. I did not know that the Cape of Good Hope does not even have the lighthouse. I discovered the lighthouse is at Cape Point just down the road. 

 these are the first big tourists bus's we have seen in the country

We wandered back into Cape Town along a very scenic route.

Saturday we wondered around downtown and to the Victoria and Alford wharf that was pretty crowed from holiday weekend for the schools.

Saturday night went to Janet's apartment with Roger and Janets sister Sandy.  We met them in Agulhas and like most South Africans are extremely out going and friendly.  Janet is more the most and is just a ball of fun to we with.  Always laughing and with a great outlook on life.  After dinner they drove on a night tour of the town.  Roger is from Cape Town and is very proud of his city and loves to show it off.  We drove up to the top of Signal Hill, just under 2000 feet high, for a wonderful night time view of the city.  It was very clear so we could see all the way to the horizon.  They dropped us off at midnight which was way beyond my bed time but I was not the least bit sleepy from all the fun that we had.
