Editorial Summary

The creators travel from Johannesburg to Cape Town, South Africa, to begin a new leg of their family adventure. After a short flight, they arrive in the Mother City and settle into a luxury resort at the One and Only, where they explore their accommodations and the surrounding canal area. The family spends much of their time engaging with local wildlife through a private guide. They visit the Atlantic Seaboard to observe the differences between historical beaches and encounter a dassie near the Twelve Apostles. The itinerary includes a trip to an ostrich farm, where the children interact with ostriches and observe ancient tortoises. They also visit the Cape of Good Hope and take a cable car to a historic lighthouse. The trip concludes with a visit to a penguin colony at Foxy's Beach, where the children observe the birds in their natural habitat. The creators conclude that the accessibility of wildlife in the region provides an unexpectedly high level of engagement for their children.
