died and gone to heaven.

Look at me. Only been in Capetown for two days now and already busting out a blog entry. Anways..

This. place. is. amazing.

Beautiful blue skies, not a cloud in the sky, perfect weather, air conditioning, hot showers, good.. no incredible.. food everywhere, bluest water i’ve ever seen, most unbelievably beautiful mountains.. I mean God must have worked extra hard on Capetown when He created this world. This is without a doubt the most beautiful place I’ve ever seen. It’s been such a wonderful escape over the last couple of days. Although, I truly, truly love Ghana and the life that I have been living there, it has been so nice to get away for a little bit and see more of this incredible continent.

I had a little scare on Monday night when we arrived at the Ghana airport. Apparently US Air messed up big time when booking my flight and booked me for a nonexistent flight, so I wasn’t on any flight to Capetown. But no worries, I shed a few tears, they felt bad, and everything got worked out. The flight was nearly empty, so Carly and I both stretched out and slept the whole way.. it was wonderful.

We are staying with a friend of Carly’s here in Capetown, so he was there to pick us up from the airport when we arrived. We dropped our stuff off at his place and wasted no time getting started here. We climbed Lion’s Head mountian, had an incredible lunch by the waterfront, and just spent time catching up and relaxing. Yesterday we went down to Boulder Beach to hang out with some penguins, then took a scenic drive down to Cape Point, which is where the Atlantic Ocean and the Indian Ocean meet. It was beautiful.

Today will be filled with Table Mountian, and some good shopping! I cant wait.

Now for some pictures…

So, those should hold you over for now. More to come soon! Miss you all, love you all. Less than a month before I am home!

Oh, and I’m currently looking out the window of the internet cafe and watching the 2010 World Cup Capetown Stadium being built 200 feet away from me.. so cool.
