Thursday
Today was the day…
We knew swimming would be in the best conditions for the next few days, so we went in calm weather and headed for the beach – it was bright and early. The water was colder than yesterday – my watch said 14C but you never know with these things. It didn’t feel quite that cold. I swam 2km, sat on the bench and then walked home. When we arrived home, Courage was finishing up washing my windows.
Courage also put up one of Julian’s birthday gifts for me…bought in the Drakensberg & now hanging up outside our front door.
The neighbour came over to get the keys for the cottage. The son of the German owner is coming for 2 weeks, so their tenants have rented the cottage for the duration. I checked the cottage and made sure all was in order, put linen on the beds and gave the neighbour the keys.
After work, Julian and I went walking along Daisy Lane.
First part of the lane…
View from the first bench…
Further along the lane…
So pretty. It’s really a little piece of paradise in an unexpected spot in Fish Hoek.
A good day!
Psalm 51:12
Restore to me the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me.
The best is yet to come – we are only passing through.
Keep the smile going.
God bless you.
In His Grip,
