Cape Agulhas 2


Cape Agulhas is an often windy and desolate place that really does feel like the end of the earth. Early Portuguese navigators found this a strange place as 500 years ago the compass showed no variation between true and magnetic north. Nowadays there is a 24º variation west, as the magnetic poles are constantly moving

It did, indeed, with the weather like this!
I felt a little bit funny when I was standing on the line where the two oceans separate. The colour nor temperature seemed/felt to be different, nevertheless I was literally at the spot where it means a lot geographically.

Though there seems not much to see around here, I was glad to be here, and experiencing being separated from you in two different oceans!

Ya it was less than what I expected. Place was windy and dangerous too.
Indian side is supposed to be warm as Indians are warm (friendly), don’t you agree with me.
