Up at 3am, damn! I thought I had survived the jet lag sleeping in till 6.30 on the first day but noo. 3am this morning and eyes wide awake, thankfully Ian has similar taste and has more TV series on HDD than I care to count. I started watching Elementary, good show.. however Watson is a girl! and Asian on at that! argh.. I digress..
Day 3? What ever we are up to.. today was Monkey Day. Oh wait.. we went to a bird park, today was Bird Day!
After the insanely early start we headed off around the coast to Chapman's Peak, a road carved out from the hillside. The weather finally showing some sun, add a grad filter to the 14mm and BAM! photos. nice.
This drive lead us around to the World of Birds... and Monkeys. A little run down but still all there this world was as the name describes full of birds. The most incredible colours, shapes and sizes I have ever seen. If you could hang out in the park down the road and see these amazing birds I might actually take up bird watching!
Oh I almost forgot, Monkeys! these little things were everywhere! a whole inclosure full of thieving little tail swinging primates. One opened my bag using the zipper only to find to his disappointment a 43 year old olympus film camera.
