Cape Town, South Africa!: More hiking and yummy food...

April fools day was hilarious. Felix (the new intern, from Germany, shocking that he is from Germany, I know) and I and a couple other randoms played Aprils fools jokes on people all day. We put saran wrap every where, on people luggage's and on Tim (the owners) car. Made a spider web out of twine in front of the door in one of the dorms. We put the ping pong table on top of Tim's car along with the net. We also blocked Tim in his house with chairs (he was not amused by this). I thought it was hilarious.

So here is one thing I should try to remember in the future, hiking with younger guys, more than a foot taller than me is going to be a bit of challenge. They get to rest for two to three minutes every time they stop and so by the time I got up to them, they were ready to go, so I rested for about 33 seconds. It was freaking sweet. I went with Felix and the Aussie (Dan). We hiked up signal hill, which is pretty much right behind our hostel. It was lot of fun. We didn't take any trails. I lost in the race up to the top - seems to be a pattern. Hiking down was a bit of challenge, hence the reason why my legs look like I just got a new kitten. Scratches everywhere. At the end of the hill we played a little game...run until you run into a tree to stop you. I lost at that as well. Mind you this hill was loose gravel and rocks everywhere. I am almost slipped and biffed it a few times. It made for an exciting hike! Then Dan and I went for a delicious lunch (I tried Impala) at Camps Bay and walked on the beach.

Had a an impromptu Brai the night after hiking. Delicious!!! Marinated chicken kabobs, browerse, salad with homemade salad dressing!
