So here are a few highlights from our time in South Africa
To start here is the kinky boot that was being worn due to an Achilles' tendon injury allegedly from just walking across the kitchen
However we later learned that there is an ingredient in some antibiotics that can cause tendon weakness and it usually happens 2 weeks after taking them so take note!
Yum!!! Good for all kinds of tails
We had dinner at La Vierge with some of our Cape Town friends. Other Nigel is still talking about how good the steak was and Woody always maintains this is the best steak he's ever had in the world so there's always a minimum of 2 visits
Their food is not fine dining but always looks fabulous and so tasty
A trip out on the bike... the orange roads are dirt and the smiley faces let you know whether the map maker recommends the road as being scenic or not
This is Miss Willow who lives with Doris and Tokkie. She is full of mischief but has been quite poorly with a bad throat recently. She seems to be recovering well now and has delighted everyone on finding the murkiest black swamp to wallow in. Following a good wash she fluffed up most beautifully to about twice her normal size
Big rocks at the local spar... not much scale here but they are bigger than my mums but her's have more fruit in them
It's the Woody aisle!
A trip to Napier and the candle shop for gifts for friends here and to load up with to bring home for us. They are hand painted by Nobunto.http://www.nobunto.com/
We stopped at this farm stall to the delight of all as you can see
There's lots of signs about the place
Lots of signs
Every great love starts with a great story...
And a new friend. This one adored rubbing up against shoes. Hands free!
I was wondering where the loo was and then I found it...
Woody and I had a beer each but no alcohol in it apparently. All home made and tasty
Church at Volmoed with the favourite resident. He made friends during the peace and supervised the communion from the Altar
He jumped down from first floor to the ground and then walked up the tree trunk which is pretty vertical to this point
From there it was up to
The roof
And from there the negotiations began
You do want to come down and not sunbathe all day
And at last success!
More of the sun to come and we will be back for the English summer shortly
