So much to tell you!

Oh my goodness, it has been a while! So much has gone on....

Here are some pictures from my hike up table mountain and the peninsula tour:

Penguins we met on our Peninsula Tour

My time at Buccaneer Backpackers was great in East London, the people that were sharing my cottage with me were awesome and we had a great time. Liz from Australia was traveling around for 4 months on her own and 4 guys, Dumisani, Stanley, Konrad and Odwa (all from Cape Town) were traveling around for the World Cup, all took a month of work! We also met Nina and Matt who were travling all around for a year! Amazing people!! We went to the beach together and Konrad gave me a little surfing lesson. I got up on the first couple tries! Awesome!



Here is a picture of the beach as the view from our cottage.

On Tuesday morning, I met Sam, my fellow Volley at Inkwenkwezi at Buccaneers and we met Karen who drove us over to Inkwenkwezi. We met all the other vollies and learned about everything here! We didn't do much on the first day but on Wednesday we deticked and defleaed the wild horses that they have on the conservation and then we went quad biking through the bush in the afternoon. So much fun! then we went to the lodge and had buger night where they have hugggggeeeee burgers! Very fun, but I was very exhausted!

So far today we've cleared reeds out of the water dam so the animals are able to get to the water. They are in a bit of a drought here so are trying to help the animals as we can. And it was great being knee deep in South African mud!!! This afternoon we are going for a game drive and hopefully to meet the older lions. Unfortunately, right before we got here the cubs they had here were getting too old so they had to remove them from the conservation. Hopefully they will be getting some more cubs soon, but right now we've got loads of monkeys (that like to break into our tents), cheetahs, and many more!

So far I have seen, a warthog, monkeys, a girrafe (right in camp), an elephant, some eland, and a couple large spiders. Hopefully more to come!
