Seeing the Sights

We've been busy the last 2 days. We went on a city tour of Cape Town on a double-decker bus. It was unfortunate that it was New Years Day since most of the attractions were closed. However, we did get our chance to go up on Table Mountain, and it was awesome! I'll post some pictures here in a day or two.
We spent yesterday in a rental car driving around the Cape. We saw the African penguins, the Cape Point with the old lighthouse, and baboons running around everywhere! We drove through some beautiful scenic areas and had wonderful meals and stopped for some tea and coffee in a cute village, with an atmosphere a lot like a beergarden of Europe.
Today the seminar began and Geo's going to have some great experiences. I'll get to tag along on a few visits, but there are a few other significant others that I'll be able to hang out with when we can't go along.
We're staying in a refurbished prison, now part of the Graduate School of Business in Cape Town. What a neat facility. It's adjacent to the Waterfront, the most happening place in Cape Town. It's called the Breakwater Lodge, if you want to see it up close!
Stay tuned for pictures soon. I promise!

Sounds great! Hope that you get to see a lot more. Bet seeing baboons in the wild was little different than squirrels. I really enjoy those tour buses in different towns. Staying in an old prison are you? Any ghosts around?
