Penguins, Dassies, and our first African Sunset






So after the botanical gardens, we discovered another penguin colony. It was bigger than the other one. These creatures are so cute. They are pretty clumsy on the ground and fall down a lot, so they hold a place special in my heart.

There are also these creatures there with the penguins called dassies. They look like really fat squirrels.

On our drive back home, we stopped to see our first true, African sunset. Our home is on the east side of Table Mountain. So the sun goes behind the mountain and we don't really get to see the sun set. So this picture is taken from across the False Bay back on Table Mountain. We live at the bottom of the mountain on the very right hand side of that picture.
