Cape Town, South Africa

We were able to travel to Cape Town, South Africa for vacation with Brent’s parents over our Christmas holiday. We are so thankful that his family came to spend time with us. It truly was one of the most beautiful places we have ever been. I’ll attach some of our favorite pictures, but if you want to see more head to http://theturnerbabies.shutterfly.com/ .

We hung out at Boulder Beach with some penguins. The water in Cape Town is so cold so the penguins hang out there.

The shark flags fly on the beaches here since they are seen quite frequently.

It’s funny to see the baboons at the beach. They are such troublemakers. They climbed onto the car beside us (above) and surfed for a bit and then climbed on our car (below) and didn’t want to let us in.
