Two weeks living the Joburg life

Friday 22 August to Tuesday 9 September

It was a busy time but we enjoyed the great Spring weather. Another Joburg plus is being able to get out of the city and into nature very easily.

We spent a great long weekend at Zebula with Carol and Jane, Megan and Pam.

And another relaxing three nights at Middelpunt outside Dullstroom with Hanlie and Andrew.

We caught up with friends and celebrated our birthdays.

We had a wonderful party for Tracy's 60th. 

And before we knew it, it was September 9th and we were on a plane to Zurich.

Blythdale Beach Break : August 2025

Friday 15th to Thursday 21st August

Blythedale is on the Northern KZN Coast between Ballito and Zinkwazi. Paulet booked a great house with direct access to the beach.

There was plenty of space for us all to chill out.

We love having a few days with no agenda. We celebrated Paulet's birthday and Gavin and Paulet's 20th wedding anniversary.

We all took turns cooking up a storm but we also discovered two gems we can highly recommend. Impulse By The Sea in Tinley Manor for excellent curries.

And Mfino in Sheffield Beach. Excellent food off a small menu in a relaxed backyard setting.

Thanks Eugene, we had a great afternoon.

Back in South Africa : August 2025

Tuesday 5 August to Thursday 14th August

Joburg for six days -

-and we we're off again; this time to KZN.

We spent a night in the historic Green Lantern Inn in Van Reenen. 

And 3 nights on the Turner's dairy farm in Nottingham Rd.

Thanks Desrae and Andrew for such a chilled time. And Happy Birthday to Desrae too!
