Today we had the best of the weather so far on our trip with lots of sunshine and no cool wind until the evening.

We had a walk along the beach in Hout Bay in the early morning and saw our small cormorant (joined by a few others today) and a seal which came zooming up close to us on the beach.

We took the amazingly spectacular route along Chapman’s Peak to Simon’s Town to see the fascinating African Penguins on Boulders Beach. The swift terns and the Cape wagtails also put on a good display. The kelp gulls were very threatening and we even saw one steal a penguin’s egg.
