Well… we’ve had what feels like a very busy month, spent with the following:
- We moved houses a fortnight ago and have had builders coming & going all week trying to finalise small issues;
- Pete’s parents arrived so we have resumed being tour guides;
- The townhouse next door was broken into during the night a week ago (4th night we had spent in the new complex). Thankfully the owners were not too badly injured, however the incident felt a bit too close to home. Unfortunately it was Pete’s parents first night in South Africa so has not given the country a good first impression for them! (It should be noted that the owners had not yet installed an alarm system which would have potentially mitigated the incident – we do have one!);
- Spent a weekend camping at Pilansberg with the Chandlers seeing excellent game; &
- Last weekend we flew to Port Elizabeth and spent a few days driving the garden route, and then spent a relaxing night in Franschhoek.
Ian and Julie leave on Monday after spending two and a half weeks with us. It has been great sharing Africa with them and showing that we do live a somewhat 'normal' life!
We now feel settled into our home now after spending this weekend at home so life returns to normal!
