Wednesday
Dear Elsie
Today was the day we saw large noisy hadedas at sunrise. They are the noisiest birds in Africa!
It was a glorious morning, so we threw open our bedroom balcony doors. Raiku immediately was drawn to them.
I wondered what he had seen. And when I went to look, it was the neighbourhood hadedas…
A short while later, they took off towards Fish Hoek, barking their loud interruptive cry as they went.
Because the day was so beautiful, we went to the beach. The sea wasn’t as great as it looked. It was warmer than recently – probably about 16C but it was a little choppy in places and had unusual undercurrents. I thought I saw a seal out at the barrel so I initially didn’t go out there, but then I realised it was a duck. I’m not afraid of ducks, so I swam out, then back to Mike, back to the barrel and back to the beach. It was a good 30 minutes in the water again. I loved it.
I worked for 7 hours.
David had a friend around, which took up his morning. Tomorrow we should get his blood results back. We’ll see.
I’m not sure if Valerie-Gail still reads my blog, but if she does, happy 70th birthday!
End of another busy day.
Isaiah 16:5
In love a throne will be established; in faithfulness a man will sit on it— one from the house of David— one who in judging seeks justice and speeds the cause of righteousness.
It’s not about now – we are only passing through.
Keep the smile going.
God bless you.
In His Grip,
Gran xx 🙂
