A Great Little Piece of History

First Things I Did In 2015
1-26pm The new year has just begun. Our New Year’s Eve was spent quietly at home, having dinner by candlelight on our balcony. The wind had dropped and it was as perfect as it could be and memorable too. While … Continue reading
Almost Washed Away On Boxing Day –
9-44am This morning dawned with the rain having passed and not too much wind. From our bedroom, in the distance we could see massive high tide waves thundering onto Noordhoek beach. I noticed on FB someone had posted photos of … Continue reading
