Monday morning we started the day with a little coffee stop at the famous Truth Coffee Shop in Cape Town. Very cool, very tasty. Definitely worth a stop.
Truth Coffee Shop.
Beautiful.
Next we headed out to drive down the coastline of the peninsula to Cape Point. The cost is absolutely breathtaking, each turn offering views more beautiful than the last.
Pulled over for a quick pic.
More beauty along the drive.
Cape Point is a nature preserve at the tip of the peninsula that you can drive through down to the very tip, the Cape of Good Hope which is the Southwestern most point of the African continent.
At the Cape of Good Hope!
We spotted an ostrich on the preserve!
We also went by the famous Cape Point lighthouse and “hiked” to the top!
Cape Point!
Beautiful views all the way.
Along the hike we came across a friendly baboon!
Michael and our new friend.
I was VERY excited to see the baboon.
It really was impossible to capture the stunning landscape through photos.
Lighthouse!
And this is why we did the trip from Brazil vs the US.
Off the edge!
On our drive out of the preserve we spotted more baboons!
A sweet mother/baby! It made me miss Colt!
Such a pretty drive.
After Cape Point, we headed out to have lunch at the Harbour House in Kalk Bay for, yet again, more delicious food and amazing views.
Harbour House Restaurant.
Our table was right beside the windows which would often get soaked by the waves – it almost felt like you were on a boat!
Great spot!
Cheers!
After lunch we went to Simon’s Town to see the penguins! So awesome!

Penguins!
In and out of the water.
Hello friend.
The penguins had it pretty good.
Another amazing day full of must-dos for Cape Town!

I can’t get over the color of the water! And those animals! (Especially the penguins!!!) The only animals casually hanging around DC are squirrels…ha! 😉
