"To Cape of Good Hope from Gordon's Bay" Agimpels's photos around Cape Town, South Africa

Entry from: Cape Town, South Africa Entry Title: "To Cape of Good Hope from Gordon's Bay" Entry: "Day 11 - Gordon's Bay and Cape of Good Hope The early birds, Shinja, Alan and I got up and headed out to go shopping for the week, Shinja had everything we needed listed and Alan and I just dutifully followed pushing the carts. Shopping here as compared to Hazyview was definitely more cosmopolitan. An entirely different, not better or worse, just different experience. By the time we got back and unload the van we had life signs in the apartment. The necessities taken care of, breakfast and coffee, we were ready to head to the Cape of Good Hope. On the road again (sounds like a song I heard) and taking in the sites. Wow, this was a new site. We saw miles and miles of townships. Reading and seeing photos are one thing but seeing them up close and personal is another. We were unprepared. What really brought our attention to this was seeing children laughing and playing games right alongside the road running adjacent to the township. We saw kids line up in a field and stamp down the tall grass so they could play soccer. You know, philosophically speaking, if people would be happy with what they have the world would be a better place. We think we're happy with more material things and we always want more. They have their possessions and they are happy. We saw that time and time again in their faces, actions and conversations. Given that it has been about 15 years since apartheid officially ended and they have come a long way but they still have a long way to go. Hopefully they don't get caught up in the "me, mine, my world" out there. We drove along the north end of False Bay watching surfers and looking at the beautiful beaches. The water looked so inviting that we could resist. Whoa there. The water was COLD. Well cold compared to south Florida. We continued on through some really narrow streets on the R310. The homes and stores are right on the edge of the road. We often saw people stopped, pointing and taking photos on the bay side of the road. Naturally, as photographers we had to do the exact same thing but at what? Whales, whales and more whales. They were close to shore and remaining on the surface. Not camera shy at all. We passed through Fish Hoek, Cairns and numerous other towns which showed the Dutch and English history. Finally we made our first destination at Boulder's Beach. This is the home of the Jackass Penguin. We followed the signs for their rookery and paid the very reasonable entrance fee. We're wondering if we needed the long telephoto to capture them but, wait, there's one less than 2 feet from us. There's another and a lot more. Nah, telephoto not needed. We had seen a documentary called "Penguin City Slickers" by Trevor De Kock before we left for this trip. We thought we were prepared for the antics but nothing could prepare us for the hundreds of them so close and interacting with humans. They actually seemed to pose as the tourists, including us, snapped away. It was an experience not to be soon forgotten. The beach and the surrounding area added to the experience. While not a particularly sandy beach it was aptly name Boulder's for a reason. We had to force ourselves to head out for the rest of the trip and, more important at this point, food. We asked the gentleman at the entrance where, he as a local, would go for lunch and he recommended the Simonstown Country Club. That was our destination for food. Good food, great bar, great wine and nice people. We finished, paid our bill and headed out for the cape again. Upon arrival and paying the entrance fee we opted to go to the cape first and the lighthouse afterwards. We did see a few whales in the Atlantic waters adjacent to the road but we were disappointed in not seeing any Chacma Baboons. When we made it to the cape, easily identified by the indigenous tour buses, we were in a photographers treat. The coast is, well, rugged, doesn't do it justice. It's very easy to see why the most south-westerly point in Africa is also the home of numerous wrecks and the names of Wreck Coast and Coast of Storms.. Even with modern technology we did see numerous large ships giving the area a very wide berth. While we were there, within 30 minutes the winds went from 5 to 10 knots to upwards of 30 ..."

"Antelopes, Baboons and Penguins, Oh My" Tonka_eng's photos around Cape Town, South Africa
Preview of Tonka_eng's blog at TravelPod. Read the full blog here: http://www.travelpod.com/travel-blog-entries/tonka_eng/1/1258405484/tpod.html This blog preview was made by TravelPod using the TripAdvisor™ TripWow slideshow creator. Entry from: Cape Town, South Africa Entry Title: "Antelopes, Baboons and Penguins, Oh My!" Entry: "Wow, Cape Town is really amazing. Dennis, why did you ever leave? It rained for a good portion of the first few days and the rain and the town reminded me a lot of San Francisco or Seattle. It's a huge city (3.5 million), but it feels small because of the mountains that separate the downtown area from the sprawling suburbs. Table Mountain dominates the skyline from any location downtown. I couldn't see it for the first few days because of the clouds, but when I first laid eyes on it my breath was taken away. It is so close you could almost touch it. It must have a profound effect and presence on the inhabitants of this city. While it was raining I explored parts of downtown like parks and museums. The fun didn't really start until the sun showed itself. I rented a car for a day and posted a notice at the hostel to see if anyone wanted to join me for a trip to the Cape of Good Hope. I didn't think anyone would respond, but Maarten, from the Netherlands, joined me at the last minute. We folded into the tiny Volkswagen (he's at least four inches taller than me) and hit the road. I struggled to drive for the first few minutes until I became re-accustomed to the right-hand drive. By the time we reached the highway I had it covered. The Cape of Good Hope is at the tip of a long penninsula and we were traveling down the eastern side. The towns we passed were incredibily cute and looked like good places to visit, however, we only stopped once to take a look at some colorful Victorian beach changing booths. A little farther down the road we reached Simon's Town which has a resident colony of African penguins (formally called Jackass penguins, but they changed the name to something more touristy). We were both disappointed that we couldn't get very close. We were confined to boardwalks above the colony, but it was still very cool. Penguins, like sea turtles, never seem to get ruffled by anything. The terrain of the Cape of Good Hope National Park is amazing. In such a small place there seems to exist several different types. There are rolling hills, sharp mountains, plains, and seaside beaches. Our first glimpse of wildlife was a troop of baboons playing and eating along the roadside. This caused a minor traffic jam as the tourists pointed their cameras at the primates. We saw another troop while we were at the beach. We were able to get within ten feet before it became uncomfortable; for us, that is. Baboons are very curious and strong and have been known to be overly attentive to some tourists. It was amazing to watch each family member; from baby to male leader. We also came across a herd of antelope, the Bontebok, and several wandering ostriches. I know it's not much relative to the diversity of southern Africa, but it was still nice to see animals that are vastly different from animals I'm accustomed to seeing. Finally the clouds cleared and Table Mountain was visible from all sections of the city. I took the cable car to the top and hiked around all day. The views from the top are amazing. Surrounding Cape Town are townships, which are informal settlements by immigrants. The city and federal governments seem to turn the other way regarding the regulation and policing of these districts. They are basically squatters living in shacks trying to make a living. 40% have HIV and a major social event is when one of their friends is buried in the now overflowing cemetary. The unemployment is around 80% and few have running water, but a majority have electricity. They are inherently unsafe places, but still many non-government organizations have stepped up to help them out from housing to education to employment. I was interested in visiting one, and while there are many 'tours' of the townships, I didn't want to feel like I was going to the zoo. I ..."
