Great White Shark Cage Diving
Klein Bay (Kleinbaai), Western Cape, South Africa
April 25, 2012

Today Rick and I got in a shark cage and saw 4 meter sharks up close & personal! I didn’t have an underwater camera, but I did get some shots while other people were in the cage…

The water was cold – about 54 degrees! We had wetsuits, of course!! When I first got in, I had a little trouble breathing until my body adjusted to the cold. We stayed in the cage for about half an hour. and saw plenty of action!

Today we went on a Bunnyventure in Cape Town!

A bunnyventure is when we draw a bunny on a map and walk it. This is what we saw…

My mom cut up carrot sticks for our snack and we finished our adventure by having a traditional foo called “bunny chow”. No bunnies in the chow, no worries. ;)
