We started with a beautiful drive along the west coast of the South African border. The drive was stunning and totally reminded me of the drive on highway one in California. We saw some of the most beautiful scenery and wildlife ever and the pictures were stunning with such little effort ... At last for the camera :)
Our next stop was along a fisherman's port which also had some stunning things to see. Obviously a lot of boats, but quite a few of which had large crates and fishing gear attached at every end of the ship. It was cool. My friend Saul and I walked around and managed to sneak a few private peeks at some things I am pretty sure we were not supposed to be near. For example, a large group of men unloading fish and just throwing them straight on the ground in a bunch of ice, or a man with a giant walrus who the man walked as if it were a dog off leash. All these little treasures were fun to see because these people had no idea we were watching them with my zoom lens :))
My pal Saul and I expressing our "booyaahhh" spirits when we got cool pictures.
Later, we hit the coastal drive again, but to be taken to the furthest South Western pointe called the Cape of Good Hope. It was breath taking and the photographic opportunities were endless. Not only were there flocks and flocks of beautiful rids, but once we drove around to the other side, I saw a whale!! Got plenty of pictures of it playfully dancing in the close waters nearing the rocks. It was such a treasure to see this whale that it brought me to tears. Lots of people go to places that they spend lots of money on just to see a whale. I saw one for free and just a few hundred feet below where I was standing.
Had such a Great day, but man am I exhausted. Hope you enjoy :)
- With all my thanks :)
