CAPE TOWN, SOUTH AFRICA VLOG： Port 5 🇿🇦🌟 Colie At Sea Diaries

Yay! We're about to go through immigration. Happy day one. Today, I have a field class for my international and intercultural communication class. Welcome to Cape Town, everyone, also known as the Mother City. Today for my field class, we got to visit different religious sites around Cape Town and learn about their history, as well as the relationships between different faith communities. We also visited the Slave Lodge Museum where we learned about South Africa's history of slavery and how it shaped the country including the lasting impacts of apartheid. It was definitely a heavy but eye-opening experience but I'm so grateful we had the opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of this beautiful city. We're grabbing lunch in Bo-Kaap which is where the colorful houses are. It's so pretty here. Wow. Okay, introduce yourself. How could you do that? I'm from South Africa. So Liaka was our Interport student this past sea stretch, so he was sailing with us to South Africa and now he's back in his home country! And, he's a dancer. She's a dancer! Oh my god, she did a dead drop before me! He also performed at the talent show. Absolutely killed it. Performed that pre-port last night. Killed it again. Again. Again. Me and Nicole now. No? No. It's good. Now we're at lunch. We're having Cape Malay food. The menu looks so good and we're about to eat. Take advantage. Period. I'm curious. Thank you. This is really yummy. I think it becomes a bride. I want to be like a reality show. Thank you. Thank you. That is not. Oh. Cheers. That's to me like a treat. Whoa. I would love to. Hi vlog. We're back on the ship. Audrey, come say hi to the Cape Town vlog. Mmm. Mmm. Mmm. Mmm. Mmm. Mmm. Mmm. Mmm. Today has been a day. Mmm. It's been a long, long day. Yeah, field class days are fun. They're definitely very informative and you learn a lot because basically you're getting a whole week's worth of class in one day. It was cool. I really liked it. We're staying on the ship this whole week, which I think will be really nice. I think it'll be like a nice reset. Yeah, I think so too. We just took a much needed nap. We did that. Now we're gonna meet up with our friends and go out for the night. So first night in Cape Town, baby. Maybe. Say hi, Shawnee Boo. Hey guys. Hey guys. Okay, so he went on a SASS program today to the Table Mountain, right? It was awesome. We're going to see that later this week. It seems so cool. Tell them what you just said to us. Well, saying like the whole waterfront on Cape Town used to all be water, and then they Wait, no, it's true. It's true, sorry, sorry, sorry. We're just. No, but they brought in, like, soil. Yes. And it took them 10 years, like, filling it up before they could actually start building on it. Yeah. So what we're walking on right now, we're basically walking on water. Oh! We're also running into a bunch of southerners, of course, because we're at the terminal and might meet up with some later, but vibes are great. Love you, Cape Town. Guys, I'm in love. This waterfront area is so cute. We had such a fun night last night. Didn't get back and didn't go to sleep until like 3 in the morning. But we're up and it's another beautiful day in Cape Town. Let me just show you what I'm looking at. It's absolutely gorgeous here. We're back at the V&A waterfront which is like 10 minutes. 10 minute walk from our port. Eating more sushi and more.

Oh, shout out to Joyce and John from pool bar. They recommended this place. And yesterday, the place that we went to, Dexter recommended that one and it was so good. They're so cute because they've been to Cape Town before. So we've been asking them for recommendations and the food has been fire everywhere. Mmm. You can see me eating lettuce. Yeah, I know the difference. The menu here is so diverse. Audrey just said you would think that we're at two different places, like when we got, but cheers. Wow. Guys, I genuinely love this area so, so much. During pre-port, one of our mentors was saying Cape Town might remind you of the States back home just because of how westernized and modern it is. And it really does. Like so many of the places. I feel like I'm back in San Diego. It's so lively. There's like a playground, a bunch of shops and restaurants. All right, guys. Tell the vlog what we're doing. What? What? Yeah. That was so great guys! It is time for our wine tour. I found a booking where we're going to explore Stellenbosch and go to two different wineries, which is so exciting. So we're at our meeting point right now and we're going to meet up with our guide.

She's definitely not watching this but like shout out Deb. She was telling us a bunch of stories about her travels and what she's learned being in South Africa because she's been here for like a week or so already. That's One of my favorite parts about traveling is like being able to talk to other people and like learn from their experiences. I don't know, just like it was so cool. Ramen was fire.

It's interesting because when we're in port, like our friends sometimes book different things, but me and Audrey are usually on the same schedule. And so that's why you see like all the characters going in and out throughout the week. But today's plan, I think we're going to have some brunch, visit Tabletop Mountain. Is it just Tabletop Mountain? So actually, so actually, um, Table Mountain, Table Mountain, and then we also want to go shopping today because we need that. And then of course eat more food. There's probably going to be even more sushi in this video, so yeah, travel, bye. Hi. I made it to Table Mountain, not Table Talk, Table Mountain. We just bought student tickets. If you show your student ID, it's a little cheaper. And so we're waiting in the queue right now. I think the wait's like an hour and it's a little steamy. Not gonna lie, definitely don't need this jacket. But there's Mr. S, we love to see it. It's already so pretty. Look at the view from here. And we're gonna be even higher in a little bit. We made it to the kill part. The floor rotates as we go up, so we get a 360 view of the kids. I don't know why. I feel like I'm so scared. Please, leave the video. Please leave the video.

Get one, two, three, four. He's literally modeling for us. Cute. Wow. So aesthetic. Push-ups. I'm low-key geeking out over here. How high are we again? Around like 3,000-something feet. That's so cool. It's so gorgeous. Such a beautiful day. I can tell. We're heading to the other side of the mountain now. Yeah. There's just so much to see. I went to the gift shop, and I found some presents for my parents. This journal for my mom and these coasters for my dad. So cute. And we're back at Waterfront. We're going to do some shopping. But first, we need a little pick me up, so we got some Starbucks. I got a mango dragon fruit. And I got a strawberry acai. Mine tastes very similar to the ones back in the States, but first. Mine's a little different. I can't put my finger around it. Yeah, it's like, earthier or more tart. I don't know. And then there's like a punch at the end. It just like punches you straight in the gut. Okay, but also, I got a chicken mayo toastie. Big and clean. Table Mountain. It's so tasty. Perfect. Cheers. Thank you. If they sell these back home, I think I would go. Yay! Wow! It's perfect. Thank you so much. I got my passport holder soon. Louis Vuitton will do it for free in whatever country you're in. So, I got the Cape Town one, and it's gorgeous. It's the national flower, a protea. Oh, and then for my other one. I got it in the Netherlands, which is at the beginning of the voyage.

Welcome to the last and final day day seven in cape town. Happy november. That's so crazy But Let's go. Good morning. Good morning Currently in the lobby a group of saucers found a catholic church nearby and there's 9 a.m So i'm gonna meet up with some new friends and go to church here in cape town Mass was so amazing, I'm so grateful that I went today. Now we're at, I don't know how to pronounce it, but it's this market, it's really popular here. And it's so cute. And so we're gonna spend some time here for our last day. Say hi! Hi! I got some matcha and avocado toast. Look who I ran into! Hey friends! It's Jonathan. It's good I could be. Yay, I'm so glad. Have a nice life. Met up with squad. We found another Asian market, so we're buying more ramen. I feel like we should just do it. Yeah, right? Yeah, right. He was dying. He was like crying. His lips were bright red. Okay, it wasn't that bad. And now he's gonna do three times. Guys, our last time at Waterfront. I'm gonna cry. So actually, I just had Roman for the third time this week. Third time's a charm, had to do it. We're heading back to the ship now. I'm so sad I'm gonna miss Cape Town so much. I really, really love this place. Yeah, but waterfront, you've been amazing. I love it here. All right, one last haul of everything that I got today. So at the market, I got this super cute tote bag. It has all of these pink flowers and it's super big. It can fit a lot. I also got this handmade journal and look how gorgeous you guys, like hello. And then from the Asian market, I just got these two bulldog cups and some cutie mayo. And it is that time again. We are leaving yet another port. And you guys, I'm so freaking sad. Wow, Cape Town. I'm low-key speechless but I'm gonna try to put how I'm feeling into words. These past seven days have been truly so special and I do not want to leave. I wish I could spend another week in this beautiful place. Even after seven days, which is the longest time we get in any of the ports, I loved it here so so much and I think it might be my favorite one so far. I just had such an amazing time here. Cape Town is filled with so much culture and history I loved learning about and I want to continue learning about and every single experience I had was just so spectacular. The people were so a few of you guys too which made me so happy and there were such sweet interactions. The views were absolutely beautiful like all the cool things that we got to see, all the animals, the cute animals that we got to see, the freaking waterfront. I think that is probably one of my favorite things about this port. We were there every single day either eating, shopping, just hanging out. So convenient because it's right next to the ship. It's huge and so many parts of it, so many parts of Cape Town actually remind me of home and I think that's why I love this port so much is that I swear throughout this whole week I feel like I'm experiencing pieces of home which is a really I had so much fun with my friends, meeting new people, surrounding myself with more sassers. It's literally the best thing ever because most likely whatever you're doing throughout the day, you will run into more sassers. Like we just take over the town and it's the most fun thing ever. But in conclusion, there's just so much love and life here and I would really, really like to come back one day, especially to take my family. I think my mom, dad, and Christian would love a lot of parts of this place. And like I said, there's still so much that I want to see. And so hopefully this is not the last time I'm in South Africa. I'm feeling so happy and so grateful. Eventually marks halfway through the voyage because we only have five ports left, which is crazy. And so all I got to say is God is good all the time. I am so grateful, so blessed that God was able to reveal to me all the amazing things this week. And that is where I'm going to be signing out for the day.
