Cape Town

 Cape Town is a modern town with many different cultural features and a history of apartheid that was incredibly cruel creating more hatred among cultures and it occurred in 1966!  The scenery is beautiful. Cape of Good Hope, Table Mountain, Hout Bay. Watching the African Boulder Penguins was a highlight. Very dense fog in the mornings, so dense that the ship couldn’t dock on schedule and had to make a quick getaway to avoid being stuck in dock overnight. 



Sea food lunch. Muscles, prawns, calamari, white fish.
