Scary Crab
Giant crab in the aquarium...Been walking up a lot of steps over the last few days... We have to walk down a lot to get to the place where most things are happening (Camps Bay). We got a bus pass that allowed us to hop on and hop off where we wanted on a certain route, and we have done that for the last couple of days.
First day which was Wednesday, we went to the Two Oceans Aquarium in the morning, and had a look around the African Craft Market at the Victoria and Alfred Waterfront. Then in the afternoon, after we had had pancakes for lunch, we went up Table Mountain. It was really cool. The cable car spins 360degrees as you go up and come down, so you get to see the whole view on both of the journeys.
When we were on the top of the mountain, we walked along a route, and saw a lot of plants, and some little geckos. They were quite cool! We watched some mad people singing songs, and jumping around, and had some oranges. THen it started to get windy so we got the cable car down to the bottom, and caught the
Mel and Fish
Mellie and some fish... bus back to Camps Bay.
We were walking up the steps of hell, when all of a sudden a snake jumped out of the bushes, and slithered away, but it almost gave me a heart attack, (don't worry Jo, I would have known what to do... Stupid Ian!). It was quite funny. Then an even funnier thing happened when we got back to the house and were up on the sun deck. Mel decided that it would be fun to fall off her sun lounger, but she did it with such style. She wheeled it in to the ditch that is behind the sun deck, and it showed me the skill of her parking. Can't imagine what she is like with a car!
Yesterday, we got the buses again, but this time we went to the District 6 Museum (I was thinking of you Steph, as that is where you told me to go!) it was really good. It had lots of true stories, and photos of people who were moved, and some of the guides were people who were affected by it....
Then we went to the "castle" which wasn't really a castle. It was BORING
Shark Attack
Lauren's reflection being attacked by a shark and POINTLESS... .stupid foreign castles.... Oh well.....
Been to the beach today, and then came back and have been swimming in the pool, as we were both dying after walking up those bloody steps of hell again... They are not really steps, more like a hill with tree stumps and other things to climb up and over.
