I had the opportunity to travel to Cape Town to discover its wonders in a few
days. I saw beautiful landscape, met lovely people and also got the chance to
see the animals around the area. Let me introduce you to those that literally
crossed my path during this amazing trip in South Africa.
Seals lazing around
Seals roughing it out
Penguins from the famous Boulder's beach.
Protected area.
Apparently there weren't that many penguins on the beach that day!
The story goes that a bunch of people found this beautiful beach and decided to build their property close to it, thinking they would have their private beach... Until the penguins arrived by hundreds and never left. Now the penguins are so numerous, that the inhabitants nearby can't even go to the beach. It's now protected....for the penguins.

Une très belle ballade...
