After a long (but amazing) month in Zambia, we were definitely excited to get back to friends and our new family in Capetown. We had two full weeks in Capetown before flying to India. We spent the time with Angi, Gaz, Cardi and the gang at the Sunflower Stop, which was home for us at this point! Christmas day, we met great new friends Phil and Vicky (from the U.K. and threatening to invade America... Read Full Entry

African Dancers

During the meal we enjoyed a wonderful performance by traditional dancers with great music.

Camps Bay

The view of Signal Hill from Camps Bay, where we walked to a few times. A lovely hour walk from Green Point (where we stayed).

Lion's Head

We were determined to climb this beast...

Atop Lion's Head

This was one of the best hikes! Profuse sweating was involved, but it was fantastic.

Lion's Head

What a view...

Staff at African Dinner

The sweetest, most efficient group we encountered in Cape Town.

Dinner Performance

The dance performance was dramatic and wonderful.

Tribal Dance

Looking Toward Cape Point

View from Lion's Head going south. We were tired from our hike at this point!

Karl Meditating

I later performed a double back-flip from this position and nailed the landing. Photos were destroyed.

Philthy Phil Philanthropist

You've taken when you shoulda give away/ Philthy Phil you gave to us/ We cannot repay (For JK and Tony M!)

Sunflower Hostel Crew

KT, Steve and Angi. Someone will be thrown into the pool. The question is, who?

Phil, KT and Vicky

New Years Eve! We walked down to the Waterfront with a great group and watched the fireworks.

KT Expressing Love for Karl

"Just a little bit farther to the top of Lion's Head, Hon..."

"Triple-Lindy or Back-flip...?"

Say Bye to Beard

Soon, it went the way of Hang Ten tube socks and the Oakland Raiders football franchise. What's that? Oakland still has a team? My mistake.

New Years Braai

Somehow, Phil suckered me into cooking for 40 people at the Sunflower on New Years! Cheeky bugger, that one. Anything to help out Angi!

New Years

Phil, KT, Vicky and Karlitos. The two Englanders were to fly to Zambia the next morning (Travelling on New Years Day? That's gonna hurt!). We all tried to stay up all night to see them off in the morning. Martin and Freeman were unsuccesful in this effort! Sorry Mates...we miss you!

This Charming Man...

Our beloved Phil truly loved the camera. Ask him about it.
