But first let me tell you about our weekend. Thank goodness I have a great boss and he said I can leave at 2:30 pm so that we can be on time for our flight! And as Murphy has it, we were extremely early and the flight was delayed by 30 min. So we sat and waited and waited some more!
We arrived safely and were off for dinner with the Parentals (as my cousin calls them) and my BFF (who also spoiled me to a super early bday gift) and her husband. (they are also our travel buddies for December) Cedric and I have been wanting to go to this restaurant since our December holiday last year and that's why we decided that we WILL go for dinner there. Cafe Gannet it is! :)
And this is how you receive your bill! haha |
The Saturday morning Cedric had a meeting at Fancourt and once back home we packed our overnight bags and off we went to stay at my aunts house at Gondwana Game Reserve.
The house is beautiful and open with views you fall in love with. The only thing I was a bit worried about was that the Game roam freely and well I would not be happy when face to face with a lion. No thank you! But luckily for me the wind and freezing weather did not want to leave so we were indoors the whole time. Except for our own mini Game Drive that we went to go do. We didn't see much, a few Zebra's, Impala, Oryx and Giraffes.
We had a nice braai and made a nice fire to try and heat up the house a bit. But I think the alcohol helped more. hehe. The next morning we took it slowly and slept late and packed at our own pace. Unfortunately Joni picked up a tummy bug and was man down since that morning. (I hope that by the time she reads this she's feeling much better) My dad, Cedric and myself decided to go for a drive and a light lunch in town and we were entertained by the wind and waves playing against each other! I love the ocean!
And then the moment that I always dread. Goodbyes. I hate them! But it has to happen. So thank you to the Parentals for a amazing weekend and to my Boo for making it extra special by just being there! I love all of you!
Till next time!

Ek moet seker baie naief wees, want ek het nooit verwag dat daar 'n nature reserve by Mosselbaai sal wees nie - net soos die keer toe on St Lucia toe was - die plek bestaan basically uit 'n reservaat, haha.
ReplyDeleteLyk of julle 'n wonderlike naweek gehad het, julle kerjakker darem maar baie rond! Ek's jaloers!
haha moenie worry, ek het ook nooit gedink hulle sal een kry.
DeleteDie naweek was baie lekker net baie koud!
Ek is nou al moeg vir al die besige naweke hoor!
Nou is ons rustig tot my bday! :)
