Our big holiday vacation - Part 2 (Cape Town)

After having a little hang up at the airport due to our lack of birth certificate for Lily (new requirement), we finally made it to Cape Town just a day later than planned thanks to some helpful friends breaking into our safe at home.  A story for another day.  We spent nearly 10 days around the Cape Town area and got to experience everything we also wanted to do in Cape Town and so much more.  Lily seemed to enjoy all of it.  From picking up shells on the beaches to hiking some great nature reserve trails to shopping downtown.  We had a home exchange set up so Lily also got to enjoy the comforts of home, toys included.

Here are just a few of the pictures we took of this amazing city:
