Simon’s Town, South Africa

Here is just a little hello from Simon’s Town where we sailed in two days ago passing by the Cape of Good Hope, a wonderful view indeed… So, now, I am writing to you from the Indian ocean, full of great white sharks… I really like Simon’s Town, it is small and calm and has a nice relaxed ambiance, it feels good to me after Cape Town. As I stand on the boat, it feels as though I can touch the mountains around me. The phosphorescence in the water was so beautiful last night as we rowed back on the Reepicheep… these moments really stay in our memories.

This morning when we got up, a seal was playing and fishing around our boat for over an hour. We’ll soon post the photos we took. Now, we are getting ready to sail out tomorrow, early Friday morning towards Durban, probably a 4-5 day trip if the weather lets us go directly. I will be in touch and will try to write underway, if not, you’ll hear from me at the beginning of next week. Right now, we are busy going up and down the mast, so this message will be short, just wanted to update you.
