Max’s Stories

Today I saw a beggar on the side of the road and he only had one leg. There was a South African man that was a flight attendant and he was nice to me and he also kept putting up at his thumbs up at me. Today we also arrived at our hotel. One of our flights was 13 hours long and so we got our own television and we could play games on them. South Africa is a cool place to live in.

Today first thing in the morning we went to Hout Bay which is a fishing town on the Cape Peninsula. We drove along a spectacular cliff top road called Chapmans Peak Drive. From there we went on a boat ride on very rough water to Seal Island where there were thousands of seals swimming and playing all round the boat. There was also a really cool market where people sold lots of ace African stuff. Next we went to Boulders Beach where there is a colony of penguins. We got really close with wild penguins and we also saw a baby penguin. We stayed at this beach for hours and swum with the penguins and explored all around the rocks and caves. After that we went to a pub called Brass Bells Pub in Kalk Bay and we saw lots of surfers and seals at the pub. As we leaving the pub we saw a boy that was that tried to get money by playing a homemade guitar.
