2nd Stop: Boulders Beach

After visiting Table Mountain on Sunday afternoon we had Monday morning to explore further and the family vote was to go to see penguins on Boulders Beach.
 The kids swam with the penguins at the beach.
 There were penguins around the rocks everywhere.
 They were completely oblivious to the people around.
 It was fun to watch them, lots of them seemed to be having some kind of competition to see who could stand still the longest.
 Apparantly they started with two breeding pairs and now there are over 3000 pengiuns! There were lots of fluffy baby penguins too and we saw some penguins sitting on eggs so there will be even more soon!
