The Cape of Good Hope used to be called else (which escapes me except that it had a negative connotation.) Someone decided that maybe there would be few shipwrecks of they renamed it something more positive. So it was named, Cape of Good Hope. It worked! Shipwrecks went down! They usually fail to mention that at the same time there were many navigational improvements and related documentation that more likely account for the reduced number of accidents.
Once again, it was spectacular! (Are you getting tired of this theme? Too bad!)
Okay . . . Off to see the penguins!
