Description
Cape Cross (Kaap Kruis) famous for its seals and smel, but the smell is nothing compared to the Sea-elephants in California.
Just at a half mile distance from my Jackal capture,( my yesterdays posting) you find a very, very large number of seals at Kaap Kruis .
The day started with a lot of fog, well known in the area, and when we reached Cape Cross it was still without a blue sky!!
(Where the Namib desert reaches the Atlantic Ocean in Namibia you can suffer from fog!!!).
We made in May 2011 a trip through the southern part of Africa ( RSA, Botswana, Zimbabwe and Namibia) .
Thanks for viewing, and your lovely words on my yesterdays posting, a special thanks for those who earmarked the image as favorite; comments are always welcome.
Have a very nice day,
Henk

I have driven past the Cape Cross turn many times in March during my holiday but didn't go in this time! Yes - they are very smellie but I do so enjoy watching the masses!!! Fantastic image Henk!
Seal Island here off Hout Bay does not compare to the numbers here - I am sure the smell does though. Thanks for a stunning reminder to visit the parts of the world closer to me, Clive
