Here comes the best post yet :)
We'll start with the southern most tip of South Africa... the place that separates the Indian Ocean from the Atlantic Ocean with an imaginary line :) There was a really nice lighthouse there too.
Then we went to a water cave... which just means the mouth of the cave opens up to the water. It was pretty neat but very treacherous getting there. One girl slipped, cut up her hand, and skinned her knee :(
Finally the best part... shark diving :-D It was the coolest thing we did. The sharks were around 2.5-3 meters long and at one point one bit the cage! :-D Another time (while I was in the cage) they guy holding the bait didn't see the shark coming and he ended up making off with the bait :) There are laws against just feeding the sharks so we had a piece of fish hooked to a line and when a shark came the guy would pull it back so he couldn't get it... essentially we were teasing the sharks :-O Before they pulled back they would yell "down, down, down!!" so we could go underwater and look at the sharks. We were in wet suits with weight belts and a mask. It was my favorite part of the whole trip (the sharks not the wetsuit) :-D
