Arrival into South Africa

We took a bus into the small town of Fish Hoek (means fish corner) from Cape Town International Airport. the views along the coast were gorgeous!!! I was expecting coastline but I have never seen such amazing views consisting of both mountains and ocean on either side of the street. I am so over tired that I may just fall asleep right at this desk writing. We arrive at Wellwood Lodge in Fish Hoek and get assigned to our rooms.
You know what really sucks?....Two girls with two large suitcases EACH sharing a room the size of a SHOEBOX while everyone else has ample room for all of their stuff without having to climb over empty suitcases. But at least we have hot water and a shower. We are left with the rest of the day to ourselves to explore Fish Hoek and settle into our (tiny) room. Amber and I decided to head to the internet cafe to catch up on our missed emails and blogging. Glad I could get caught up.
It will become more eventful soon. We are going to see penguins tomorrow!!
Speak to you soon,
Meganne
