The following stories and pictures posted happened over the weekend (August 1st and 2nd 2015). A couple of the girls decided to rent a car and invited Laura and me to go. We said yes and our adventures continued to the Cape of Good Hope, Boulders Bay Penguin Colony, Cape Town, Bo Kaap, the V&A Waterfront in Capetown, and more.
We started about 9AM Saturday morning. Aylin was driving. She was so nervous she was shaking in the beginning. She is from Germany and also not used to driving on the left side of the road. She got used to it fairly quickly, but still asked us to double check for her at every turn and roundabout. It is teamwork to drive on the lefthand side. Between help, English, German, and a stick shift on the left hand side...we did well.
Right before reaching the Cape of Good Hope we ran into this fellow, the ostrich. As you can see he was about one foot away from the road. We stopped and took pictures. I never thought I would see a wild ostrich so close in my life. It was awesome :)

Glad to see the group driving effort continues to work. It was the only way we survived when I was driving on the left.
