Cape of Good Hope - Southwestern most part of Africa

Today was much better than yesterday. I did a day tour to Cape Point with Baz Bus. I started out at 9 in the morning and stopped in Hout Bay. Here, I got to pet a seal. This town was interesting to see from far away because it was built up during the Apartheid period. One side was for colored people and the other for whites. The side for whites had much better infrastructure. Now, they are no longer separated but the houses in the white side cost 500,000 rand while those in the colored area are only 50,000. So, no one has really moved around.

Afterwards, we stopped to see the African penguins. They just one day decided to come ashore in this suburb and have stayed ever since. It's a protected area now.

Then, we did a bike ride in pouring rain. Although it wasn't a race, I finished first. No prize of course.

Next stop was the lighthouse at Cape Point. This is right next to the Cape of Good Hope. There are actually two lighthouses here. They built another one at a lower elevation because the old one was covered by clouds a lot.

Our final stop was the Cape of Good Hope. Again, it was pouring down rain here so everyone just jumped out of the bus to get our photo taken by the sign. I'll post that photo later. It was a cool photo opportunity because the sign gives the latitude and longitude. The Cape is the southwestern most part of Africa. It was once thought to be where the Indian and Atlantic Ocean meet but that's not the case. That happens some other place but I don't remember the name of the place.
