Recently we attended our fellow missionary Jeremy Howard's wedding in Cape Town and also took a few days of vacation to see the scenery and history of that part of South Africa. Here are a few pictures:

The wedding was beautiful! |
|
Dawn in the Karoo (a semi desert area between Lesotho and Cape Town). |
|
The bitter aloes were in full bloom through the Karoo. They are very pretty in this arid landscape! |
|
Table Mountain |
|
Simon's Town is a little harbor village built on the side of a mountain. It is the third oldest European settlement in South Africa. Many of the buildings date back into the 1700's. |
|
Because of the steep mountain side that Simon's Town is built on, many of the houses do not have road access. You park your car and climb the steps! |
|
African Pinguins |
|
Boulder Beach was beautiful! |
|
We climbed up to the lighthouse at Cape Point. |

Fun Times! Looks like you had a beautiful visit...
Wow! Such beautiful scenery--and Gault family! Missing you all! Looks like a relaxing vacation! Love, Sharon and Paul & boys
The vacation was fairly relaxing except for mechanical problems. I spent parts of three days working on our van trying to get it back on the road so we could get back to Lesotho before our visas ran out.
