A Kirstenbosch mini-break

A Kirstenbosch mini-break

Thanks so much to everyone for the lovely birthday wishes on Friday. I had a glorious day, seriously spoiling myself by packing a book, a blanket and a pillow, and heading off to Kirstenbosch Gardens for the whole afternoon

I did manage to move about enough to take some pics, but mostly I lay on the grass listening to birds, leaves rustling, water gurgling, and tourists chortling, as I fell in and out of a delicious doze. Utter bliss.

More pics of my Kirstenbosch mini-break over at my Flickr page.

    I kid you not, my verification word is relexva. Which is how your afternoon sounds!I was also at Kirstenbosch on Friday, but with 3 naked kiddies in the stream hunting sharks. Not as relexva but still very lovely – isn't it a magical place?!
