a cape town accomplishment

We made it to the end of the world twice during days in Cape Town. The very tip of Africa ends in a little U-shaped cape. On one tip is the Cape of Good Hope, where we ended our 2nd day, and Cape Point, where we ended our last day. Cape Point is really interesting because it actually has a big rock formation that jets out into the Atlantic, which of course we could not skip walking out to the end to see. We were dodging squalls and slippery rocks on our not-so-short hike, but it was sooooo worth it!

    Hey, Ashley!

    It was great to meet you at Shannon and Stubbie's wedding. I am really interested in the work you do, and plan to start reading your blog to catch interesting stories. :)

    I saw this article today and thought of you. I also wanted to find out if you read Nicholas Kristof's column in the New York Times. He does a lot of travel to Africa and writes about what he sees there, mostly in a, "No one knows this is happening, so SOMEONE has to write about it," way. He's very interesting.
