With the electricity supply still not restored, we decided to visit False Bay Park.

False Bay lake is part of the Isimangaliso Wetlands in KZN, South Africa.

An  awesome site! The lake has regained its former glory after having been dry for so long.

Even the Pelicans are smiling and looking very smug.  This has to be my favourite photo ever.

The electricity supply was eventually restored after 24 hours.  How accustomed we have become to flicking a switch, and how unprepared we are when nothing happens when we flick it .....

Spider eats Spider

We experienced extremely hot weather on Christmas day that ended in 

quite a severe storm in the afternoon. At about 4pm the electricity went off (the norm here during a storm) and we decided to make our way back home.  When I brought the car closer for my Mom, I noticed this feast on the fender. 

The electricity did not come on during the night as hoped.

Today I bring you a photo of the Spider that delivered my Christmas Tree ;)

Wishing all the visitors to this blog a happy and joyful Christmas!
