What I Did on My Summer Vacation – South Africa

Posted by Ann on September 10, 2009

What I did on my summer vacation? The infamous back to school questions. How many years did we have to do that? I don’t recall exactly but certainly more years than not. Well I always felt funny cause it never seemed like our family ever did anything very exciting over the summer and everyone else summers sounded so much better than mine. Of course we all had pretty much the same summers, there were always those kids that did stick out, but all in all it just sounded like a better summer when coming from someone else. Well that changed this past summer! Going to South Africa was a blast. I went with a couple of friends and had a better time then even we had expected. Starting with the boutique hotels South Africa where the accommodations were perfect, comfortable and clean. The staff at the hotel was very welcoming and friendly and seemed very genuinely concerned that we were comfortable and having a nice time. Only moments from the beach on foot nearly every morning and evening were spent there enjoying the first or last light of the day. The travel time here is long, nearly 30 hours from the east coast of the United States, but well worth it. Here the rugged and rocky cliffs meet the meetings of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. The seas are usually very active and sound of the crashing waves constant. Cape Town South Africa is a great city full of things that kept us entertained. Museums, shopping, coffee shops, bars, restaurants and night clubs all have a very friendly atmosphere and left us with no time to become board. There were a few mornings we caught the sunrise on the beach fresh from the night of clubbing, then of course slept the entire day. Long journey, yes, well worth the journey, yes as well.
