Seagull World
Another beautiful day,
said one.
Where shall we go today,
said the other.
They potted around the lovely beach.
So warm isn’t it,
said one.
Well, it’s summer on the Cape, isn’t it,
grinned the other.
They potted a bit further, as they looked out.
I know, let’s go right to the end.
You mean the Table Mountain?
No, even further… the southern tip of the Cape Peninsula.
Let’s enjoy the Cape of Good Hope just now.
And off they went!

The image shows two birds standing in the water of the ocean, at a beach. The sky overhead is cloudy and lit golden by the rays of the sun, which are reflected in the water too. There are waves coming in towards the beach.

Were those birds wired? I hope they were well paid for their service. I used to have the same conversation with my husband but the question was always, “What shall we eat today?”

Aha, very good point. Those two will pop into one of the restaurants on the way – nice chips and fried fish near the sea!

Well, there’s a few small towns on the way, and those seagulls are pretty devious. 😉

Hop on, I’m sure one of the larger birds – maybe an albatross – would help you up, then you can sit on a wing and enjoy the view!

Oh, excellent! Such nice places. I didn’t know that you had been there in the past. We often pass the Table Mountain, but we haven’t been back to the Peninsula for ages. We should go back after the holidays (less busy then). 😊

Glad that you like that, Robbie. The weather is good, although rather breezy, but those penguins wouldn’t worry about that. 🐧🐧
