East London to Capetown.

Anchored in the Buffalo river in East London.

Looking over at the unopened yacht club. 

Looking out at the place where we were welcomed to go have meals and drinks since the yacht club  was no longer open.
This car carrier came in as we were all ready to leave for Capetown so we had to wait till it was secured before we could leave. East London has a big Mercedes factory so these car carrier come every other day to haul the cars away.
On our way to Capetown. We had a beautiful moon.
One of the  more beautiful sunrises I have captured.
Same one just a few minutes after the first one.
Mornings before the sun comes up.

We had a full moon when we arrived in Capetown.

As it got lighter we could see table mountain approaching Capetown.
We are now at a berth at the V & A marina. The cloud coming over the table mountain is called the tablecloth.
And here is our Solstice. 
This is one  of very many neighbors. Once they are on your pontoon it's very hard to get them off cause they don't want to leave. They will just hiss at you. So we have to be very careful. 
More messy neighbors.
We were taken to a winery for a wine tasting. What a beautiful scenery.  Quite a few vineyard in south African and they have very good wines.

Here we all are having the wine tasting.
This is a swing bridge that you have to call and get open to come to the harbor of the V & A Waterfront  Marina where we have a berth.
Here's  a yacht waiting to  go through another bridge to get to the marina.
