MOM - DON"T READ THIS ONE

USA | Thursday, 8 Oct 2009 | Views [783] | Comments [4]

I have only a few hours left in Cape Town and decided to head down to Long Street from my hostel, as I have done, alone, several times since staying here.  Today's experience, however, was a bit different. On the short jaunt down the hill the 4 small ... Read more >

Yesterday I headed out on a day tour to Cape Point, the place where the Indian Ocean meets the Atlantic...and one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. I awoke that morning to rain pounding against the window in my dorm room, not the best day ... Read more >


Shark Diving

Preparing for the trip

SOUTH AFRICA | Tuesday, 22 Sep 2009 | Views [593] | Comments [4]

Some of my friends & family have expressed an interest in keeping up with my little trip to Africa, so I thought I'd start this journal.  Okay, so it wasn't a formal request or anything...I guess the more likely reason is that I'm a self-indulgent ... Read more >
