Cape Town-->Muizenberg-->Stellenbosch

Hi everyone,

Greetings from the Cape's famous Winelands! Tomorrow we head out on a tour (and intend to try plenty of wine).

We've been busy again. After our days at Table Mountain and the Bo Kaap in Cape Town, we caught the train and headed further down the Cape to the surfing town of Muizenberg. We stayed at an absolutely lovely place called the Amberley Lodge, and then couldn't tear ourselves away. The cool breeze and the cheap room were just too enticing, and we stayed for three nights. The highlight of the stay were the African penguins (pictures to come).

Today we left and headed here to Stellenbosch, an old university town. As for what's next, we're considering a 26-day overland safari through Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, and back to SA. We'll keep you posted.

Getting pictures up here has been a problem, but watch this space. I just might figure it out!

Love,
Ames

Hi Amy! We envy you guys. Eivind did a five day safari in Kruger National Park, northeast S.A. He thinks that you should definitely do a safari. He's heard that Botswana is excellent. It is also the migrant destination of choice for Africans migrating in Africa.

Eivind says to tell you guy's to do the world's highest bungee jump somewhere near Knysna. He had a huge rush doing it and it beat the heck out of sky diving.

Cheers mate!
