Day two of Cape City was April nineteenth which was a tough morning with it being our authentic due date (from the miscarriage earlier than this being pregnant) and likewise my cousin who handed away.. her birthday. I awoke a little bit off so I used to be so completely satisfied to discover extra of Cape City and see some penguins! The drive to the penguins was largely all scenic views of the shoreline. We initially stopped for a breakfast at a cute restaurant the place I had one thing fully new – truffle mushroom on a toast. Sounds fascinating however scrumptious! Then we headed off to see the penguins.
It is a whole vacationer factor to do – and we have been vacationers so we needed to! There’s a charge to enter and there’s a facet with a seashore and a path that you simply stroll alongside, after which additionally a facet that walks you proper all the way down to the place the penguins are. We walked the path first and it was properly definitely worth the stroll as you may see! Clearly the identify and the quantity of boulders goes hand in hand.
Typically while you do touristy issues like in Italy after I went to the Trevi Fountain, there are swarms of individuals and it simply takes away from the expertise. Particularly when generally it doesn’t look that approach in images. I’m not positive if we simply acquired fortunate however there was a really small quantity of individuals round and people who have been lounging have been largely there to swim or benefit from the seashore. We didn’t come throughout an enormous crowd or something that took away from the expertise on the seashore facet. So, when you get to the penguins go down the path as a substitute of simply the one cease initially!
We took all of the images and once more, as you may see there are just a few individuals but it surely actually was not unhealthy! Everybody was well mannered and the water was so clear. We in all probability ought to have introduced our fits however the water was a little bit chilly simply with the time of 12 months. I’m positive that is fairly busy of their summer season! (Seasons are reverse so heading into their winter right here).
We then walked again to the opposite facet of the trail the place the primary entrance was and regarded over the pier on the penguins! Most of them have been right here and once more, unsure on the seasonality of it but it surely had simply the correct amount of individuals I might say. Calihan cherished that his shirt matched the penguins!
After the penguins there’s a reward store that you simply exit out of (I advised you it’s touristy) they usually have every kind of souvenirs in case you are ! I do like when the reward outlets are on the finish so that you aren’t carrying objects round. The stroll again to parking which was a little bit little bit of a stroll additionally had road distributors and another outlets. There was additionally some stay music / singing as properly for a full expertise.
Our day two ended with seeing household for a giant dinner! We flew out the next morning so one other fast journey, however I felt completed lastly making it to Cape City!
