Cape Leeuwin

in at Yallingup Beach, you’ll want to stay for hours. Maybe it is the tucked-away setting of this beach that makes it easy to understand why beach goers think of this area as their own private lagoon. 5. Cape Leeuwin, Where Two Oceans Meet The Cape Leeuwin coastline is the geographical point where the Indian and Southern Oceans meet and is a maritime landmark as the resting place of 23 shipwrecks. To assist passing ships, the stark white stoned Cape Leeuwin (the Dutch word for Lioness) Lighthouse was built in 1895 and remains operational to the present day. At a height of 39 meters, it is the tallest lighthouse in WA. Erected on Australia’s most southwestern peninsula, it towers 56 meters above sea level. The lighthouse stands as an ever vigilant guard at the end of the granite peninsula. There is a fee of $8 per person to enter the Leeuwin precinct, and a small additional fee to explore the inside of the lighthouse. Sights to last a lifetime at this location include the lighthouse and the keeper’s cottages, memorials to the shipwrecks, coastal rocks that can be explored, a visitor center, museum, and café. There are viewing platforms spaced out along boardwalks where it is possible to see dolphins, sea lions, and whales. The lighthouse is located on Cape Leeuwin Road in Augusta. It is a 45 minute drive south, along State Route 10, from Margaret River. You can call for information at +61 8 9757 7411. 6. Amazing Mazes Nothing brings out the inner child in…

Playing the Enemy: Nelson Mandela and the Game That Made a Nation by Josh Carlin is an extraordinary read about a nation that no one ever thought would come together as one. As a politician of South Africa and eventually the president, Nelson Mandela, always seemed to know how to win others over. Not only would he win them over, he would develop a connection through his words that made the people feel adoring to his nature. The drive and motivation combined with the smooth talker he was led him…

Literature review Nelson Mandela was a South African leader. He succeeded to end apartheid and with the African National Congress (ANC), he was the first one who won the presidential election with black-African origin. Thus, Mandela received the Nobel Prize for Peace (Britannica, 2016). 27 years as a strong-willed prisoner (Shriberg and Shriberg, 2011, p. ) improved his personal development of forgiveness for his rivals, formed his strength and established supplementary leadership skills like…

landowners who needed protection from the Indian and French, and Eastern class merchants who had more liberal views and wanted growth of the colony to continue. This political party would accordingly become the patriots fighting for freedom. Geography The soil of Massachusetts is very thin and rocky, the area is only about 190 miles from East to West and 110 from North to South, and a 192-mile coastline, made up mostly of bays, hence the name the Bay State. Rolling plains and small streams…

Screech! The wheels of the plane finally touched down at Logan airport in Boston after an eight hour flight. After we got off the plane, we still had an hour-and-a-half drive ahead of us. Great. But I knew that it was worth it because we were going to Cape Cod to visit my Grandparents. Cape Cod has beautiful beaches and beautiful weather. The beaches have the silkiest sand, and the bluest skies. Regular visitors and locals refer to Cape Cod as, simply, The Cape. For all of the years…

Before I mention three points that I saw as important, I would like to say thank you for presenting this summary to the class. I’ve order the book, because I feel that Fullan ushered in some very valuable concepts that will benefit me as I move forward in a new phase of my career as an administrator. The first important point for me from this summary of Michael Fullan’s book by Jenn David-Lang in The Main Idea, were the four wrong policy drivers. I agree with Fullan in that a principal needs…

A few days later, they found the island of Molucca and found a different number of spices back to Spain. The Victoria headed eastwards into the Indian Ocean in an attempt to find the Cape of Good Hope. Once they found that, they would be able to follow the coast and return to their home on Spain. The Trinidad, on the other hand, decided to go back west towards Panama to maybe find a Spanish colony that can help them. Sadly the Trinidad couldn’t make it to Panama and had to turn around back to…

best solution is, but I am glad the college students at UCT were able to do something about the Cecil Rhodes statue because of the imperialism it represented. Pastor Shosana wants the death of white preservation, but I am wondering what that would look like. Is it realistic in the future that everyone has equal status in society? If whites lost their authority would blacks take over? I have also heard many white people talk about reverse racism. After the apartheid the Truth and Reconciliation…

Desmond Tutu was a freedom fighter with a big goal at the end of the apartheid era; to reconcile the country through the influence of Ubuntu. This topic was selected because today black South Africans are still facing the horrors of apartheid, despite its ending in the 1990s. Desmond Tutu is a freedom fighter who still living, he has recently worked to bring equality to South Africa. Tutu 's efforts to reconcile the country are relevant today, since he uncovered the truth behind the injustice…
