Our past few days in Cape Town have been jam packed! The highlights so far have been Boulders Beach and Table Mountain. At Boulders Beach, we actually swam with African penguins! It was so cool! We also spent a morning at Table Mountain – some people took the cable car up to the top, and others climbed over 3,000 feet to the top! It was certainly a workout! We also visited the Sustainability Institute, an eco-village, as part of our Eco Tourism class. We volunteered time working in the garden that supplied the vegetables for the entire village. We are excited about our last few days in Cape Town, and we certainly are not excited about returning to the snow in Delaware!
