Saturday we experienced the first period of not perfect weather. It was beautiful outside, but it was a tad chilly and got SUPER windy during the daytime and then progressed to gloomy and really cold by early evening.
Saturday morning we got up early and began our journey to Cape Point, aka the most southwestern most point of Africa. The trip to and experience at Cape Point was beautiful and led to a lot of bonding because we were all together all day and the subject matter was light and easy! This was a nice experience because we have all been focusing on Cape Town and its differences and challenges so we were all able to let loose and have loads of fun!
After stopping in the outrageous wind to take a quick pick to commemorate our location at the Cape of Good Hope, we traveled on to walk up a mountain, basically, and take more pictures of the stunning view. We took pictures with a baboon, the views and each other! Rebecca got her sandwich stolen by baboon. I then hid my sandwich and power walked to the van- won’t be having that. Then we proceeded to go hang with the penguins at Boulders National Park on the coast. So great!! I love penguins, so it was fun. I left early because I had to get on a bus and travel to Plettenburg Bay, which will be in a later post.
SO WINDY

Overall, the day did not involve a lot of introspection because I was happy to be seeing the beautiful scenery and having fun with my new group of friends! I thought the change of pace was needed and we all had a great time.
