Arrival in Cape Town...

After a quick five-day sail from Tristan, the Agulhas arrived off Cape Town early on Wednesday, October 9th. We were safely berthed at the Department of Environmental Affairs dock in the Waterfront side of Table Bay Harbour by 10am. Our unforgettable trip to Tristan had ended, and it was time to face the reality of big city life again. What an amazing journey we had over the past five weeks. Candace and I were really blessed to see Tristan da Cunha, the most remote inhabited island on the planet!
