Continuing from previous post .. From one suspension bridge to another .. much shorter but equally as high at Wild 5 Adventures where one can attempt a leap off the cliff edge hanging on for dear life to a giant swing at the Oribi Gorge Hotel. Definitely not on my bucket list ! I’ve swung off the Soweto Towers a …
Apologies, friends, for my absence yet again. We have had a very very sad family time with the passing of my beautiful, inspirational and hugely courageous sister in law after a long, long fight against cancer Continuing from my previous post .. driving through Lake Eland Game Reserve. From the valley/gorge floor at Lake Eland (one of the …
Following on from my previous post – the rustic chapel, our last stop within Lake Eland Game Reserve – let me go back to the beginning of our lovely morning with my cousin Barry as our driver. He’s been there umpteen times 🙂 It’s quite amazing to think that the Oribi Gorge is a mere 40min drive inland from Port Shepstone on the …
We have been back from our holiday for a week already and am only now going through my photographs. Shocking, I know !!! Hubby and I spent a few days with my cousin Barry in Ramsgate, South Coast followed by 10 days relaxing in Ballito on the North Coast with Elaine, Bryan and little Emma. I’ve taken …
More flowers from my autumn garden. Fortunately I did a spot of gardening yesterday as I don’t feel like doing any today. There is a chilly wind and even though the sky is clear and sun is shining it isn’t all that pleasant outside. This is a reading-a-good-book day with some knitting in between or at the same …
Oh my goodness, I am slacking with my blog posts. It’s amazing what a difference one little person added to our family makes !! Tuesdays are Emma days. Hubby and I fetch our little cutie pie around 9.30 am and so the day begins without a stop! All other days, including weekends seem to be busy. …
We had a family gathering last Sunday .. Easter Sunday. Our plan was a picnic in the park but rain clouds gathered and thought it best to stay at home. As it turned out it didn’t rain! We did, however, have a super day munching our picnic food at home. I could kick myself actually. …
It is school holidays. Bradley is away at a rugby camp and Connor is at home with a friend which means I don’t have the responsibility of grandchildren this afternoon. This morning, after theee most relaxing yoga class, I had my usual Thursday morning coffee date with my special friend Sandy and a playdate with her cute-as-a-button 11 month …
One more, the last to be exact, stepping back to November last year post. This time hubby and I took Daniella, my favourite niece and wine tasting buddy to Rust en Vrede Wine Estate in Stellenbosch for lunch and wine tasting. Done in that order. Best way to do it actually. Fill your tummy with the most succulent and …
Rewind to our Cape holiday in November last year. This was when we discovered the new and improved Coffee Roasting Co. at Lourensford Wine Estate and as it was a Sunday, the market which is held every Sunday. Another thing I did not know! Having travelled down to the Cape, specifically Somerset West over the past 13 …
