Today 14 of us went in a van with a guide down the east side of the peninsula south of Cape Town (with False Bay on our left most of the way) to the most southwesterly point in South Africa, Cape Point, and just before it, the Cape of Good Hope. Sailors trying to round the bottom of Africa to get to the Indian Ocean often thought they were at Cape Point and crashed into the Cape of Good Hope or its huge rocky outcrops. On the way we passed the surfers' beach at Muizenberg and a fabulous colony of penguins at Boulders Beach and had lunch in a seaside restaurant. We saw several baboons and baboon families, a couple of wild ostriches and some elands (large antelopes) from the van. The day ended watching the sun set over the Atlantic Ocean from Chapman's Peak. It was a pretty wonderful day.
