Today was another long day of travel, perhaps 5 hours in total. We hit up some shopping along the way and snapped some nice ocean views. Our first stop of the day was Cango Caves in the Little Karoo. Boasting caverns dating back 1.5 million years, it was a nice tour.
Our second activity in Karoo was quite an interesting ostrich farm. It provided a nice little educational experience, shopping stop, and more fun for Terri. As I was elected the "Man" of the group, I was forced to kiss an ostrich. You'll be pleased to know that this be done by inserting a grain pellet in your mouth, closing your eyes, and hoping the stupid bird doesn't "make out" with half your face. Surprisingly, Betty the Ostrich was a nice kisser and properly eradicated the food from my mouth. And for you sick people who are wondering, NO!--Ostriches do NOT lead with their tongues. Yes, Mrs. Carlson indeed does have a video of this.
Food today was also noteworthy. I had an ostrich burger for lunch (probably my last), and Crocodile Salad and Pizza for dinner. Good eats on the Little Karoo...
