Guinea Pig 1
It’s thirsty work – being so cute!
We saw this little Guinea Pig at the World of Birds wildlife sanctuary, Hout Bay, Cape Town.
Where were all the other little pogs, you ask?

Oh, the usual place – sleeping in their food trays!

Walking around Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens in Cape Town, there are many wonderful sights to see:
Distant mountaintops, unusual and indigenous flora, works of art, a cool stream running through a shady dell;
Orange Daisies 3
And turning a corner in the path, these iridescent, brightly coloured daisies.
I love Nature!
post script: I’m not entirely sure, but I think these flowers are what we locals call Cape Daisies, Osteospermum.
My favourite exercise is a cross between a lunge and a crunch. I call it lunch.

Monkey see me too!

Visiting the World of Birds wildlife sanctuary in Hout Bay, Cape Town recently, we went inside the Squirrel Monkey enclosure to get up close and personal with the little monkeys.
It seems they were checking us out just as much as we were checking them out.
If you think women are the weaker sex, try pulling the blankets back to your side of the bed.

A leave of absence
I’ll only be posting here

Spring has Sprung here in Cape Town and I have many chores waiting. Also family is visiting soon, so I’ll be spending time with them.
All of which means that I’ll only be visiting Blogland now and then, for the next month or so.
To all my friends, particularly those in hospital or recovering, keep well and I’ll see you later.
Cheers!
OK, so you’re 10 years old, you have a laptop, iPod, Facebook and a Blackberry . . Dude when I was ten I only had one thing to play with – it was called “OUTSIDE.”

Yeah, Yeah, I know. There will always be the Generation Gap.
Still, I think that my childhood was a lot healthier than today’s kids will have.
