The Cape of Good Hope, South Africa

Today we went to a place called "Cape Point" or "The Cape of Good Hope."
This place is on the most southwestern tip of Africa (Cape Agulhus is the Souther most tip and is the closet you can get to Antarctica without being on a boat or on a plane.)
One of the cape's most famous attractions is the lighthouse on the top of the hill where you can look over the cape and the ocean.
They now have a new lighthouse on the bottom of the hill close to the water because the old lighthouse, (the tourist attraction), is to far up on the hill and too far inland. This caused ships to think that they had plenty of room to go around it, but then they would crash into the rocks or land that was still in front of the lighthouse.
Another fun fact about Cape Point is; one side of the cape is the Atlantic ocean, and the other side is the Indian ocean.
If you look really close when you're there then you can just barely see the color change in the two oceans.
If you ever go to South Africa, this is a must do!
