I'm just in awe writing day 2, sitting
outstanding on my balcony looking at the magnificent Table Mountain.
The day started with rain but luckily the clouds are clearing and I
have a fantastic view. Having a massage at the One & Only
doesn't hurt putting you in that relaxed “zen” mode.
I wasn't sure what to expect today. I
left this morning for a full tour of the Cape Peninsula. It reminded
me of a mix between the Road to Hanna in Maui and the Amalfi Coast –
two destinations I would never think to compare. What was really
surprising was the wildlife I saw on the drive – Ostriches by the
sea, Penguins, Seals and Baboons! I stopped by an Ostrich farm and
of course a winery to taste some delicious wines. The highlight of
the winery was a sparkling Pinot Nior which unfortunately they do not
ship to the United States – darn!
One of the major highlights of the day was standing at the Southern Most Point of Africa. I just hope someday I can return to this fabulous city and share with my family.
Too bad you can only have 44lbs on this trip or I would ask you to carry me home a bottle of that sparkling pinot! I'm toasting to you (with my coffee at my desk) for a continued fabulous trip! Miss you!
