Good Company in the Gardens

What do you do on a semi-rainy day in Cape Town. The Natural History
Museum. The kids both loved the touch and feel displays, but were
especially awestruck by the great sea display. The whale chamber was a
hit, with Jessica singing "wooo - weeeeeeeeeeeee - ooooooooo" songs
all the way home.
<Postscript - she was still singing whale songs that night when she
was in bed. About 10 minutes later a little voice floated out of her
room (yes, that bottom lip still quivers) at the memory of the Jonah
story when Jonah was eaten by a whale. "Mommy, the whale eat
Jonahhhh..." We had to comfort her a little before she would fall
asleep. >
After visiting the museum, we had lunch at the cafe in the gardens,
and I caught these shots as Jessica and Emily played together. Note
the progression... Luke wanted in too - he's never one to be left out
and had a little pose at the end by himself!
