Spending time in Joburg with Chrisèl's family

Highlights:
  • Getting to meet Chrisèl's wonderful family and being made to feel so very welcome.
  • Getting to meet all the beloved family pets including Rosie, the pug, and the chooks.
  • The lovely setting of the house on a huge piece of ground - who knew you could enjoy such space and tranquility in the heart of a huge city?
  • A walk in the neighbourhood - and the dogs going absolutely crazy!
  • A delicious braai with family friends, including the best potato bake I've ever tasted.  The ribs were also right up there.
  • The best veggie pasta I ever tasted. And an awesome smoothie.
  • Playing lazer tag (so much fun) and watching The Avengers 2 at the Montecasino.
  • Watching Christafa play in a football match and sing a solo in a school musical. Very multi-talented!
  • Seketa - a little ray of the purest sunshine.
  • A drive through Joburg in the middle of load shedding with none of the traffic lights working. So glad Chrisèl was driving. What a consumate driving professional she is.
  • Helping Kevin to build a greenhouse frame for the vegetable garden - a lot of fun.
  • Shopping up a storm for our trip to Utopia.

Chrisèl's sister, nephew and niece.

More of the family household. That's Rosie in the bottom right, the most loved dog in all of Joburg !!

The lovely house, set on a huge ground with a river running through the bottom of it.

The frame of the greenhouse we made for the veggie garden.

I love the way Jo has done this.  She's becoming the consummate professional.

The family attend a word cup match in Cape Town!

Unfortunately not many photos were taken - but there are two to commemorate the event. Sam is a natural on the Vuvuzela.

Photographing my first football match

On the way home from Bobbin Head today, I saw a football match being played and decided to take some photos. I've never photoed a football match before and all I can say is its bloody difficult! Anyway, here are some of the results.




...and my personal favourite (when in goal, always clutch your goolies!)...
