| On our last day in South Africa we went to the V&A Docks and took a boat ride to Robben Island. |
 |
| Here I am on the island. |
 |
| The island use to be used as a prison. For many years this is where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned. Here is his cell. |
 |
| After our trip we had a picnic. |
 |
| And visited some ducks. |
 |
| Back on board the ship heading to Namibia with some of my friends. |
 |
| We went down to Cape Point to see the end of the world. On the way we stopped at Boulder Bay to play with the penguins that live there |
 |
| This guy seemed to be looking for something. Maybe a nice fish lunch. |
 |
| These guys were just hanging out. |
 |
| We then headed further south to Cape Point, the very end of the peninsula. Here are its coordinates. |
 |
| We went up to the Lighthouse. |
 |
| Here is the view. |
 |
| We could also look down upon the Cape of Good Hope, the most southwestern point of Africa, which was just down below! |
 |
| See here is the sign that states that! |
 | |||
| Rhino road block! These gals did not want to leave the road. We had to gently encourage them to move over. |
 |
| This elephant stopped by to say "hi" to me! |
 | ||
| And his little five-year-old friend was friendly as well. |
 |
| This kudu spent the day hanging out outside our room at the lodge. |
 |
| At the end of a long game drive it felt good to relax a bit! |
 |
| In South Africa we went to Kapama an animal preserve. We drove around in a large open air vehicle. We saw lots of zebras like these. |
 |
| WE saw lions like this sleeping one. |
 |
| Her sister was jealous since she was sleeping in the good spot and woke her up. |
 |
| These guys just crashed in the road. |
 |
| This giraffe came by to say "hi"! |
 | ||||
| These guys were putting on a good show of mock fighting. They swing their necks around each other. |
 | |||||
| We also saw some huge rhinos. |
 |
| Auroville was a fascinating place. There is a crystal orb in this building. Looks a bit like Spaceship Earth at Disney's EPCOT. |
 |
| This is the Hindu temple at Gangaikondacholapuram. It was an amazing site with the longest name of any place I know. |
 |
 |
| These two guys at Gangaikondacholapuram remind me of my buddies Lion and Cow back on the ship. |
 |
| Next stop was India. We went to Mamallapuram to see the Shore Temples. |
 |
| Let's follow the crowd. These kids seem to know where they are going. |
 |
| The amazing temples were surrounded by friendly cows. |
 |
| I made friends with Nandi the cow there. |
 |
| You have to watch out for the lions though! |
 |
| Here is another friend I made at Mamallapuram. I really like her caterpillar shoes! |
 |
| I made a bunch of other friends. They were visiting the temples on a school trip. |
 |
| Here is a scary lion-elephant from another temple. |
