I have just come home from my trip to South Africa. I traveled to Cape Town and the Garden Route with my toddler son. I met some very friendly people and didn't find any danger at all luckily. We explored the beaches, saw the penguins, viewed the seals from a boat and went on a safari for a few hours. We went to look around a poor township and that was interesting. On the streets I saw people in yellow vests looking after public safety. We took the train down to Simon's Town and found it very scenic along the coast.

Would you like to visit South Africa?
Safaris are possible so would you go on one?

I have heard that South Africa is a very beautiful country however, I have no
super big desire to go there. If i had unlimited resources I might consider it but my main goals are to go to China, Italy, Russia, Japan and perhaps Austraila and Germany. One time I was in Europe taking the train from England to France and met someone from South Africa on the train.

Hi Snowy. Yes, South Africa is a very beautiful country and I took a 12 hour flight to get there. I have three places at the top of my travel wish list now. Those are Cartagena de Indies in Colombia, Vancouver in Canada and Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. I hope that you will go to all the places on your goal list for traveling. Good luck.

Hi Maxine, As you know I am not as adventurous as you so my safari trip would probably be visiting the local zoo. It does sound like you and your son had a wonderful time though. Huggles. Ellie:D

Hi Ellie. Yes, we had such an amazing time and the weather was perfect. Some winter sunshine was very welcome. I love going on safaris to spot as many animals as possible. So far in my life I have been penguins in Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. Zoos have so many animals so it must be like seeing the whole world. Maxine

I haven't been to south Africa but my friends who have been there has informed me there is no big difference between there and London.
Well if you still need to tour on more African trips, i guess you visit Nigeria, the most populated country in Africa. That's my native country but i presently live in Israel.

I would love to visit South Africa, but now that's not possible. There's no way I could do this on the pension.

I'm glad you enjoyed your holiday - and welcome back! No, I no longer have any wish to travel outside my own country (Australia) ... unless I could visit a lovely little fishing village in Cornwall called Polperro. Apart from that, I'll be staying put. It just seems like too much effort these days to travel very far ... I'm happier sitting around the pool at home reading a book!

My husband and I discussed a safari as being one of our future vacation destinations but I think I would do that without our children. It's very expensive from what I hear but it's something we want to do with our friends because it would be such a fun adventure. How old is your son? I am assuming he has good behavior, my toddler is a very bad girl!
