A moment captured - Photo's

I love Pictures, a moment captured for ever...... 

I love beautiful pictures which transport you to a a place where you can smell the air and hear those unique sounds.  Have Camera, will photograph...... 

My Lounge wall is covered up with a photo wall,  I choose a picture from every trip which best conveys a moment in which I felt truly alive and it gets framed - great conversation starters and fabulous memory banks.......

Pictures to come :)

Feeling the power of Nature

With less then 3 weeks to go before I head out on my much anticipated travel adventure, I am surrounded with end of year madness and major road rage..... I find myself becoming a not nice person........

After a long day yesterday which was hot and muggy, I headed over to my Dad's house to make him dinner. I decided we would eat outside under the covered patio. Within minuets of sitting down the wind started to whip the huge trees around, the sky become a luminous spiders web of lightening and thunder deafened all other noise...... We sat and ate watching feeling and listening to amazing high-veld storm.

The wind thrust the rain in every direction and next the hail came down covering the lawn with a thick layer of white - Jozi's idea of snow. I choose to stay out as it has been years since I really experienced this force of nature...... It is such a norm to run inside turn on the lights, close the doors and hide from this orchestra of nature......

From Braaing hot to the sub zero

Yesterday being a public holiday in South Africa and a whopping 36 degrees Celsius it was an out door day......... 

A metal bath filled with Ice and Beer, 

a braai lit 

Potatoes in the coals and corn on the cobs.

A very green swimming pool (thanks to all the storms) Rocking tunes, loads of sunscreen and a bunch of great friends............ 

I love days like this so carefree, Fun and filled with laughter.

As I have started pulling out my clothes to pack for My trip I find it so hard to wrap my brain around sub zero temperatures.

So I guess it is absorb the sun and pull out the layers and look forward to the snow......
