Sizzling Summer!
I never thought I would welcome the South Easter...but after the last few sizzling hot days (our thermometer read 32 degrees Celsius in the shade yesterday!), I am relieved to see the clouds on the Silvermine moutains! It means a breeze! Sadly, Cape Town only receives its rainfall in winter, so there's little chance of being cooled down. Needless to say, the clan and I are seeking water!
Last night I made an early dinner, and we got to the beach by 6pm, and swam...no sharks (!), and just pure delight....
And then some shivering bodies, over tired from a long day needed a warm bath and bed!
Summer, she sighed. Got to love it!

Summer...
I paused as I wrote the title of this post ... I was hoping to call it "Sizzling Summer" but after the rain this week and the cold snap we've had, I'm not sure I can venture out to say that yet! I do so hope that today's wonderful weather truly does mean summer is here at last!
So far in our holidays we have....
I hope you're out there soaking up the sun too! Happy summer holidays!
So far in our holidays we have....

| had a Christmas lunch with a student (now friend and part of the family!) |
 |
| spent time on Noordhoek Common soaking up blue skies, wide open spaces and acorns! |
 |
| started to spend many an hour soaking up the sea, sand and sun with SMILES! |
 |
| And nothing says summer more than watermelon! Great big pink slices with juice dribbling down our chins! |
And me? This photo commemorates a monumental walk I took on the beach one summer's eve. A walk to restre my innner world and seek Him. But whilst doing it, I managed, for the first time this year, to walk barefoot on the beach free of pain - my feet are finally healing! (Just one more year of orthotics!)
