Durban

About a month ago South Africa celebrated Heritage Day, which meant to us: 3 day weekend! We took a trip to Durban, a city on the Eastern Coast about 5 1/2 hours away. We had a great time.

We arrived earlier than hotel check-in time, so we grabbed some lunch and took it to a park where a group of men were dancing and drumming traditional African music in honor of Heritage Day. It was pretty awesome.
We spent a day a Ushaka Marine World. We watched a dolphin show and went to the very cool aquarium. In the photo, Bryn was leery of the dolphin, but was willing to give a little wave to say 'hi' anyway.
We spent another day at the beach playing in the sand and wading in the Indian Ocean.
Africa's Santorini. Hopefully we'll get to go to the real Santorini someday, but until then...

There was this huge wall built to create a pool of the ocean water (note to Chicoans: like unto One Mile). Justin swam through the pool to the wall. What a stud.

New posts - yay! I was going through withdrawal!

Looks simply beautiful! I'm so glad you are having such adventures! I love Bryn's hesitancy with the dolphin. :)
