After a slow start this morning with Declan being in bed not feeling well, I ran around the house cleaning all in preparation for my folks coming for a visit with some family friends from Jeffrey's bay. After lots of hugs and kisses, gifts of oranges and grapefruit all the way from The Bay, we headed down to our favourite fish and chip shop.
Kalky's is such a worthwhile excursion on weekends, live local band playing and loads of visitors coming for a taste of the sea. The cue is always long but after you order 5 minutes later there's a waitress shouting your number through the restaurant (maybe I should mention that this is not the type of place you want to go to for a quiet romantic dinner - its loud, its local and its busy). Well with our motley crew, the food was down the hatch within minutes and then we were off to cast a line, watch the seals and watch the fishermen offloading their catch.
Of course once the folks headed off home, we headed off for a nap- with the youngest sleeping, the 3 boys watching some Odyssey dvd's that a friend lent us, we were able to make the most of it. As the Afrikaans saying goes - "magie vol, ogies toe" (when your tummy is full, your eyes close).
With so many special moments, thought I would just post a few of the photos which made today so special.
