This Weekend in Cape Town

After a very busy week at placement, spending time with the other volunteers (including a late night yesterday of eating out, partying, and karaoke at the local pub because over half the volunteers are leaving this weekend), and cultural activities, I am looking forward to the weekend. Tomorrow I am working all day on a Habitat for Humanity home in a township. On Sunday three of us have hired a car and driver for the day. We are going the coast to Hermanus to whale-watch and have lunch, then to Cape Agulhas, the southernmost tip of Africa, and back to Cape Town over the mountains. The views are supposed to be spectacular, and Hermanus is one of the few places in the world where the whales come almost up to the shore. This is my last weekend here,and this one is sure to be memorable.
