Now for the fun stuff! Yesterday we went on a tour with all the international students that lasted all day and took us all around Cape Town. Honestly, Cape Town is the most beautiful city I have ever seen in my entire life. However, its crazy to see the first and third world contrasts that exist here. You can be in the most wealthy part of Cape Town, where Tom Cruise has a summer home, and drive 3 minutes away and be in a completely destitute township--its like nothing I've ever seen before. But one thing is for sure: I've fallen in love with this city.
A group of singers outside one of the National Parks! The music here is amazing and people are always singing and dancing. Its such a great vibe.
We almost hit an ostrich while driving! A little shocking to see compared to the deer in the US.
New friends, Emily and Pearl, at the penguins!
View from the penguin site--they have really cool rocks in Cape Town!
View of penguins homes.
View from the tour bus.
View from my room!
One of the places we went on the tour: Cape Point--looks like Paradise Falls from Up! So beautiful. The beach down at the bottom was pristine. 
Another gorgeous view from Cape Point.
A beautiful lookout--one of our first stops on the tour! The houses look like something you might see in Greece. 
My room! It's a little more decorated now.
The penguins at Boulders National Park! So adorable. 
So glad you are having fun!
