Penguins! Baboons! Dassies! Seals! Steve Bell!

Back again - still in Cape Town, and what a busy week...

My week in pictures:

Arrival in Cape Town

Lion's Head - near Table Mountain

A dassie - native to the top of Table Mountain

The gang on Table Mountain - Me, Matt H, Lou, Tanya, Jonathan Zapiro (hugely famous SA cartoonist) and Matt B

A seal - snapped at the Waterfront

Cecil Rhodes - with appropriate bird satire...

Jackass penguins at Boulder Beach

Penguins with Steve Bell (appropriately enough)

Another bloody penguin

The English Tourist Abroad

A wild baboon - snapped from the car window

The Road To Nowhere - town planning in Cape Town

Statue by a local artist (whom we met, but whose name I temporarily forget)

School Photo - with Pieter-Dirk Uys (SA's most famous comedian, after the show). L-R: Paul from the British Council, Me, Matt B, Lou, Tanya, Jonathan Zapiro, P-D Uys, Michelle - boyfriend of:, John Curtis (one of the winners of the SA end of the competition), Steve Bell and Matt H. Phew, what a long link

Who says satire is dead - snapped at the Robben Island Ferry Terminal...

And to end on a serious note - Nelson Mandela's cell on Robben Island

Right, that's all for now - as you can see we've been enormously busy, probably won't get time to post before I return, but hope to see you all again soon...

p.s. forgot to say - picked up a copy of the Guardian today - my cartoon for the New Internationalist is on the letters page...
