Riding home





                                Riding home on the country roads - often coming across obstacles to
                                avoid. Does not seem to be a problem though for either the rider of
                                the cattle.

The Giraffe....


   The Giraffe is such a lovely creature. Nosy at times                                                                                      but always with its head held high. 


A happy family.

Cape to Cuba restaurant


We walked into this restaurant not expecting much only to be

really surprised at the decor and the general ambiance. It was amazing and we were told that everything was for sale. The colours and the tables were colourful and simple. The chandeliers were "to die for doll". I loved the whole experience including the food. It was just such a change to the usual restaurants we come across.


Just what the place needed 




Just loved the swing which was set up in the middle of the place.
The the young waiter told us that it was used often as we could well imagine.... who would not want to be swinging between the chandeliers?
Side entrance. I never did find out what the green
figure near the door represented. 

The other side of the restaurant with a bar and sea view.
The casual area.. 

Our view from our verandah.
The train did pass by and made a huge noise


Our table and chairs. 




Loved the swirl of the floors which was an unusual
paint technique .

The main entrance into this restaurant of character.



Blue lights on the road.

A blue light flickers
on and off along the fence

Although I am not good at taking pictures in the evening I thought I would
give this a try as every evening when I drive past I think how lovely it looks along this road. It is a school sign which flickers all night. The blue is vivid and bright against anything else.

Early evening when the blue light is switched on. 
Early eve 

Straight along the fence

Early eve  with the sunset in
the distance.

As the sun goes down the blue filters across the road..

All dark now with the town lights
in the distance.
