Two Oceans Aquarium

With the Archbishop on his 79th birthday

Nobel Square on the Cape Town waterfront

Clouds shrouding Table Mountain

Well...... I had planned to take the cable car to the top of Table Mountain today, but the mountain was covered in clouds all day.  So instead I visited the Two Oceans Aquarium... Some interesting displays, and there were a number of Semester at Sea folks there, since it was a good thing to do on a cloudy day.  Also roamed around on the dock.  There is a plaza with statues of the four South African Nobel Prize winners: Albert Luthull, F.W. de Klerk, Nelson Mandela, and Desmond Tutu.  Today is the Archbishop's 79th birthday.  There was a gala birthday party for him on board ship, attended by many South African dignitaries, and he officially retired from public life today (see http://af.reuters.com/article/topNews/idAFJOE6960O520101007).
