Seeing Joanna and Steve
It was so lovely to see Joanna and Steve again. Joanna is one of my oldest and dearest friends. Their lovely children, David and Luke, are growing up so fast. I didn't get to play cricket with them this time which is probably just as well because David bowled me well and truly out last time!

Visit to Cape Town
Ally and I just returned from a wonderful trip to South Africa. It was wonderful to see our family again. I could have gobbled the kids up they were so cute.
Sammy´s first ever photo. Of me, nogal, and a good one. I didn't even crop it.
We took the cable car - to lazy to walk. Actually, more due to lack of time. One week is not enough!!
Apart from our lovely family, this is what I miss most about Cape Town. The beaches are just so beautiful.
Amazing how the Waterfront has grown since we were there last. Incredible to think that a smelly harbour renowned for sleeze has become Cape Town's premier tourist destination and "the place" to have a penthouse.
The highlight of our stay was to have a reunion of our friends at Jo and Ant's lovely house. Volleyball, hot sun, swimming, good food, old friends... Talk about combining the best things in life into one day. A day I will always cherish
A night out in Cape Town. Great to see Adam, Rusty, Jo and Adam again
Some of my happiest childhood memories are from this beach St James. It was wonderful to experience it again with Sammy and Matthew. I'm pretty sure there are almost identical photos of Jo and I as toddlers munching ice cream lollies on St James beach. Ah, the circle of life!
