Little sister in town







Lisa spent a week with us and we were on the go most of the time with the main focus being exploring the fauna and flora of our surrounds. She flew in to Port Elizabeth and instead of just fetching her and heading straight back I decided that we should take a trip up to Addo Elephant Park which was a really good call. We encountered plenty of ellies, a lone buffalo, a few hungry lionesses and an excitable bunch of meerkats. How's that for photography. We also took a day out to visit Monkeyland and the Bird Park, which was really good, besides a vicious attack on Lisa by a maniac parakeet. After the compulsory walk around Robberg, a delicious dinner or 3, a few quadbike rides and a bit of golf her week was up. A really good week I must say.

Visitors




Since getting back to SA and settling into life on the Garden Route we've had loads of visitors. Barry, Anlia and little Thomas surprised us a while back and my folks recently popped in for a couple of days. They timed their visit with the strongest winds, coldest weather and heaviest rain of the year so far but we still had a great time. One of the highlights was a Hartenberg Wine tasting and gourmet dinner at 'The Plettenberg'. A bit weird that I don't have any photos of my folks hey?
