It’s the beginning of the Deck Day gathering. Gail and Lynne arrived from Cincy last night bearing gifts of hometown food. We’ve spent a crazy morning doing party prep and shopping and are now reveling in a quiet moment and savoring Graeter’s Black Raspberry Chip Ice Cream. Shortly Jay and Liz will arrive and the busyness will resume. But for now we ‘re just glorying in the flavor of our favorite ice cream and grateful that Lynne reads our blog.

With a UNESCO World Heritage Site, two national parks, dozens of museums, and hundreds of tours offered in the Cape Town area there is more than plenty to do. For our two day visit we opted to concentrate on African wildlife visiting the Aquila Private Game Reserve and the Boulders Beach Penguin Colony for a wonderful chance to these fabulous animals in their own habitat.
The Zulu make up a large portion of the South African population and have a culture all their own. Today we traveled from the Port of Durban on the east coast of Africa to the Valley of a Thousand Hills to learn a bit about their traditional lifestyle.
