We made it! |
Grandma in prison at the army barracks. |
Where Nelson Mandela gave his first speech after being released from prison after 27 years. (City Hall) |
The first rainbow we saw in South Africa. |
Grandma's favorite (the penguins, not me ;) |
Just waiting for someone to open the gate for him. |
Quarry where the prisoners at Robben's Island had to mine for limestone. |
Nelson Mandela's cell |
View of Cape Town from the ferry. Table Mountain is in the background. |
We were supposed to go up to Table Mountain but it was too foggy. Yes, I do love the penguins. Having seen all kinds in Antarctica and Australia, I couldn't miss the "jackass penguins" in Africa. Ebby is also one of my favorites too (Grandkids that is). Capetown is a pretty town. We had pizza at a place near our hotel. It was our guide's birthday when we toured the next day. I think she was more into her birthday day, than us! We went on this huge ferris wheel and really got a beautiful view of Capetown. The guide who took us to see the penguins was an interesting character. Well, guess I'll sign off, LOL, G.G.
