The Past Week (in a nutshell):

We've had a delightfully busy week - it seems our 2 weeks in Cape Town just flew by. We have been so blessed by perfect weather, incredible sea-life-sightings, and fabulous times with family. Oh, what it is to be blessed! :)

As we haven't had access to the internet for the last week, here's a brief summary of what we've done for the last several days:

Wednesday (Day 9):
We were picked up by my sweet cousin, Roxanne, and taken to our next 'home' - for our final days in Cape Town. We visited with my dad's sisters-in-law that afternoon, catching up on all the Douglas family news.

Thursday (Day 10):
Uncle Rob (my mom's brother) - who just so happens to be a tour guide - took us on a spectacular Cape Tour. We hopped from mountain to mountain, from coast to coast, stopping to watch seals, dolphin, ostriches, eland, guineafowl, bontebok, and what added up to be 23 whales. We went to Cape Point - the most South-Westerly point of South Africa. We stopped for a wonderful meal on the beach, and then made our way to boulders beach, where we enjoyed thousands of penguins. What an incredibly, stunning day!
