South African Safari!

We went to South Africa with Adventures by Disney!



We started off in Cape Town.  We went to visit Robben Island.
The tours are given by former prisoners, and it's very insightful. 
Nelson Mandela was held prisoner there. This is his cell.

We spent some time in wine country also.

We saw African Penguins!


I also met elephants.



We took a plane to get to the game reserve for our safari.

Landing in the savannah

We saw The Big Five (lion, leopard, buffalo, rhino, elephant):





We also saw giraffe and zebras!



It was a truly special trip.

Mount Rushmore

We visited Mt. Rushmore in May, but today seemed the right day to post.
