Birds of Eden

This was an amazing bird sanctuary that is the largest free flying one in the world! Some pretty choice birds were hanging about...
Golden Pheasant

Blue Parakeet
Toby


Scarlet Ibis
Golden Handed Tamarin

Our first whale sighting

We had a lovely walk around a reserve in Pletenburg. We saw a couple of whales off in the distance rolling around. Inspired us to go on a boat tomorrow. Oh and we saw a dassi, it's closest relative is an elephant! 

More food in Plett

Another amazing meal with amazing views for super cheap. Emily Moon restaurant, it kept getting recommended so we dropped in and it was amazing. 

District 6 museum

These posts are getting all out of order as the four of us contribute. These are photos from the district 6 museum.
The museum was about the process of housing segregation in Cape Town. More depressing shit, but interesting. 

Knysna

First stop on the garden route! Turns out to be quite touristy...

Cango caves

Cango caves were pretty amazing formations but we didn't exactly have them to ourselves...

Robertson

We spent one night in a cute and very religious town called Roberston. It was our refuge from the lighting. The whole town was in a 70s time warp. First place we've been where they said it was safe to walk at night.
