Boats and Ships at the V&A Waterfront in Cape Town by Robbie Cheadle

This slideshow includes three photographs of ships and boats taken at the V&A Waterfront in Cape Town, South Africa. Click on the pictures to enlarge the photographs.

Ferries and Boats by Darlene Foster

These beautiful photographs were contributed by children’s author, Darlene Foster. You can find out more about Darlene and her exciting Amanda books on her blog here: https://darlenefoster.wordpress.com/.

This is what Darlene’s says about these lovely photographs:

I recently visited my daughter on her island off the coast of British Columbia in Canada. It takes two ferries and a boat ride to get there. This is a picture of the beautiful setting and the dock we leave from to get to her island. (seen in the top right corner). I have included a close-up of her boat, the one in the middle, in front of the larger boat. It is a lovely ten-minute boat ride.

    The water always calls to us and how better to experience it than by boat? (K)

    Those are beautiful boat photos. I grew up by the north Swedish coast where there are a lot small boats and barges. It reminded me of home.

      I like boats and water but I’ve lived most of my life far away from water.

        Water, the sea, the coast, rivers, and lakes is a big part of my life, because I lived by the north Swedish coast where, naturally we have a sea, but also lots of rivers and lakes. We are visiting our grandson in Baltimore and tomorrow my son and I are going fishing.

    I love boats and ferries and trips to islands. On a holiday on Skye we arrived too late for a trip to another island actually getting off the ferry, but you could buy a return ticket just for the ride.

      That is nice. TC and the boys took a ferry for the ride to Moll near Oben. They got stuck there because they got off and had to wait two hours for another. Naturally it was raining. I was working in the hotel.

    Lovely photos from you and Darlene! I especially like the first one of your, with the mountains and masts, and Darlene’s second with the reflections. Two ferries and a boat ride to get there–I think that would be too isolated for me, but it does look beautiful!
