East Coast Tour - Part 4 - Cape Agulhas National Park and Home..

We are on our last leg of our trip. Man, we covered 4,228km over 14 days. Quite a feat if you ask me. Our last stop was the Cape Agulhas National Park. The southern most tip of the continent of Africa. The drive from Tsitsikamma was good and we arrived mid-morning.
We stayed in a thatched chalet which was just about brand-new. In the photo below, ours was the second from the left. We were the only ones here, so it was so peaceful.
Below is a photo of the miles and miles of open coastline....

Ruth doing what she is good at....chillin...

Once again, the braai was fired up, the drinks were poured. Sharing the sunset with ones life partner is truly a life worth living!

One of the many shipwrecks along South Africa's coastline.

And here we are at the very tip of Africa... Couldn't quite make out the convergence of the Indian and the Atlantic, but it is there....somewhere....

Just for the record.....

The Cape Agulhas lighthouse, which was built in 1848 after the wreck (amongst many others) of the ship 'Arniston' with the loss of 372 lives in 1815.

Sadly the next day, our trip was just about over. Boy, what an adventure it has been too. What a truly magnificent country this is. It will be very, very sad to leave in November. The good thing is, is that we can always come back for a visit!

Below is part Gugulethu, one of the shack towns that are scattered all around Cape Town.

You know you have arrived home when this comes into view...
