The Phlog

Because I won't do much talking, the photo's will. As my camera decided to have a flat battery halfway through braai-ing the marshmallows, most pics are copyright Chantel, thanks my friend!

We had a total blast (ok, I can't shut up, so you're gonna have to pretend to be interested for a bit), arrived on Friday afternoon at about 5-ish. Set up camp, started the fire and had the best time. So peaceful and quiet. Woke up the next morning with sparrows-fart, though here it's probably camel-belch, had coffee, fed the child and then got on the bike with my new gear. It does make such a difference to ride with one's own helmet that fits perfectly :-) I took Chantel out for a practice run, had loads of fun going over little dunes. Hey, I'm so rusty it sometimes feels like I'm learning from scratch!!

Nico the lodger and his girlfriend and their friends also came with and as they're a bunch of Pommies, Gideon offered to take them on a dune ride in their hired Fortuner. Ahh, always fun to freak the people out, my boy had a great time taking them up huge dunes and then reversing back down :-) He said they made panicky noises ... :-)

We packed up by midday and were home in time for lunch. The rest of the day was rustig, followed by a super crap Bulls game and then a mildly interesting England vs. France game. I don't actually know if I have the nerves to watch the game tonight ... might need a drinkie or something for that.

Now that you've made it this far, below are the pics. Hope everybody has a super awesome stunning week.

Ok, first the Kaydin Kronicles, the first ones are from last week, when he figured out how to pull-up in the cot. He now sleeps at the very bottom of the cot.
