Today, we actually had a schedule (weird). We left at 8 to start our trip to cape point, and stopped very shortly in for coffee and snacks. We first went to Laurence’s house, which I am moving into. It is right on the beach, surrounded by mountains. We then went to another beach to have a lecture on the fynbos. Laurence is back now, which is really nice. I love the way he lectures. We moved around a bit in the quantums, looking for different areas to talk about. Then we went to Cape Point, which is a very beautiful area in the very south of ZA, though not the southernmost point. We then went to the beach, and swam and surfed. Well, tried to surf. The waves were so big, they would just knock me right over. Then we went to a penguin reserve, and looked around a bit at the African penguins. They are called jackass penguins because they sound like donkeys when they make noise. I’ll see if I can post a video later. We then went to a bar in the area for dinner, and headed back for the rest of the night.
