Tuesday
Today was the day…
That was 22-2-22 -a Two filled Twosday.
So now you know. Try remember at 22:22 tonight. Then you’ll really have experienced as many twos as you can get, until 2222 I think. The day dawned with a beautiful sunrise. Not only is it getting earlier. It’s also rising further north.
Off to the beach we went. There were a bazillion tiny fish in the sea. As we walked along the cat walk, we kept seeing swarms of tiny little fish.
It was quite a sight.
Mike ran 5km. I swam, in amazing flat water past the lighthouse and towards the Seaside cottages. As I swam, I heard voices. I looked up and the fishermen had launched their boat and were rowing enthusiastically towards Clovelly. As I watched, I noticed their fellow workers running along the beach with their nets. The boat came in and the nets were cast – then the fishermen rowed vociferously out to sea. I swam up to just before where they were working – my watch buzzed 1km so I turned around and swam back. Such lovely conditions this morning.
Other things that happened today. Julian returned to Johannesburg. The cottage guests, a family of 6 – parents and 4 children aged 2 to 9 – checked out. They have spent the last 4 months in South Africa and chose to spend their last two nights in our cottage. Tonight they fly back to Germany. I got the impression they are a very busy family. I stripped the beds and washed most of the linen and towels. I’ll do the rest tomorrow.
Today there was a fire close to Lake Michelle. It looked serious.
But it was soon doused and last I heard everything is fine.
I worked a good 7 hours.
Psalm 36:7
How priceless is Your unfailing love, O God! People take refuge in the shadow of Your wings.
The best is yet to come – we are only passing through.
Keep the smile going.
God bless you.
In His Grip,
