DAY 25 SATURDAY APRIL 18 - CAPE TOWN DAY 2

We had no tour booked today so we caught the shuttle bus to the Waterfront area.  There were 1000 people leaving the ship today, so suitcases, buses and taxis slowed our exit.  We saw three dragon boats training in the dock area with a few seals "playing" with them. 

 We spent the last of our Rands on small crafty items, of which there were millions for sale in this precinct, all made locally.  We looked at some large animal models, including an elephant which was clad entirely with tiny beads.  They make anything out of beads here.  These were of metal.



There were a few local singers, dancers and musicians performing in the streets.

We now have 1000 new passengers, mostly South Africans, so the show tonight was put on entirely by the "permanent" singers, dancers and orchestra and introduced the entertainment staff.  The clocks went back another hour, so we should now be on English Summer Time.
