Random Pictures

 Here is a lovely picture from the top of Table Mountain.
 Here is the port of Cape Town. It was really amazing to see because the port is known for their ancient sailboats. It looked like a bunch of pirate ships were sailing around the harbor.
 An enormous collection of clown fish (Nemo).
 This is one of the tanks from the aquarium. Nothing special; just thought it looked cool.
 This is a spotted moray eel. They're gigantic. If you look at the left side of the picture, you can see the tail of this enormous serpent.
 Some coral...
 These are called cowfish. Pretty obvious where the name came from.
This is called a St. Joseph Shark. They're really cool looking. They don't really look like most sharks.
 Here is a wave pool at the aquarium. Every couple minutes or so a wave would come crashing over the railing to simulate a shoreline.
 Gigantic Spider Crab... little bigger than those found in New Jersey.

 They're humongous.
 Don't even remember what he's called. Just like the kelp in the background.
 Baby rock lobsters.
 Adult rock lobsters.

 Sand-Tiger Shark (Raggy Tooth)
 South African Puffer
 Seahorse... one of the few species where the males carry the eggs.

 Sole... Haha
 Pipefish. The sign said they're rare to see. Obviously they haven't been to NJ.
 Couple starfish. A few species can regenerate their entire body from one single arm.
 African Penguins.



 The picture made me laugh because I knew my mother would have a hard time pronouncing this word.
 Really cool setup for the freshwater fish. There was a nice waterfall in the background.

 Couple pictures of the tank with the Gully Shark.
 You can see the shark wasn't even close to being the biggest species in the tank.



 Some Yellowtail Tuna. We use tuna heads to bait rope the Great Whites close to the boats.


 Nice picture of the Sand-Tiger Shark tank.
 Table Mountain...
