Cape Town and Hermanus, South Africa

After our safaris, we were pooped, dirty and ready for some downtime so we spent a few days mostly relaxing in Cape Town and Hermanus.

Performers - all ages - are everywhere.

Street performer at the V&A Waterfront. Incredible talent. We took a video but the lighting was crap. He actually slipped his entire body through an unstrung racketball racquet.

Music and dance everywhere

Seaport boardwalk
Enormous wealth inequity. Legacy of apartheid, which was officially dismantled in 1993 but effects are still very apparent.
Rocky, picturesque coastline between Cape Town and Hermanus.
iconic Cape Town view from the top of Table Mountain, looking back at town.
Camp Bay, South Africa outside Cape Town. So much like Southern California.

We had a driver take us to the Cape of Good Hope and on to Hermanus, where we watched whales from the shore.
