Robben Island

 We are waiting for the boat that was going to take us to Robbin Island.
Mom said that we should sit on the rock in front of the BIG sculpture of the Elephant, so we did.                                                                   

 There was an adorable seal that had flopped up the stairs, and kept rolling, because the flies were annoying it!
 This is Nelson Mandela's, the first black president in SA, prison cell, [if you don't know what I'm talking about, look it up on the Internet] They only gave the prisoners a bowl, a spoon, a pillow,  a thin matress and a blanket.
This is a Watchtower. Th prison guards sit in the top to see if any of the prisoners are trying to excape.





This place was for the people [whos relatives were prisoners] that came to visit.





On the way back to mainland it was so windy that moms hair went flying!!!!!

This is the amazing view!!!!!

Touch and Feed Farm!


We went to the touch and feed farm on accident!
We thought that it was a different place!
I was fun anyway though.
There was cute Parrots,

 And naughty Cockatoos!

It stole my cap, well, it tried to!

School on Holiday!

 I went to school with with my cousins, their schooling is MUCH different to the schooling in New Zealand and, I couldn't understand a word of Afrikaans in the Afrikaans lesson!!!
There was plenty of time to go swimming after school with my cousins and their friends!!! We had a great time!
