Bacardi at Skabenga’s Pub

The sun has come out, the storms have passed and all is calm once more. And that can only mean one thing: It’s time to get down to the pub! And no one does it better than Capetonians. Slip off to Noordhoek after work, run up through The Red Herring and find a spot on the deck at Skabenga’s. The sun is setting, it’s happy hour, the place is buzzing and you waiter brings you an ice cold beer and the best pizza to be found on the Peninsula. It doesn’t take more than a couple of nanoseconds from the time to food arrives to the time Bacardi arrives.

Sweet little (big!) cat that he is… So much love and so much affection and so much of his face in our leftovers!

HAHAHA, Until that is, he dicovered the Tobasco Sauce!

Greenhairmermaid in Bo-Kaap

The winner of the Scott Kelby Photowalk competition in Cape Town is my very good friend and the extremely talented Greenhairmermaid. That one and some more amazing work can be found on Flickr.

Also from Greenhairmermaid and definitely one of my favourites is this one of Swinx

It's probably my favourite because I happen to know that as soft and cute as that photo makes her look... she's very sharp underneath all that ginger!

Thanks for the awesome images, chick!

As long as I am learning....

I've always said that everyone who is alive on earth is here to learn. So as long as you are still around, you've got something more to discover. Once you know it all - well then it's tickets for you.

The mere fact that we're still alive tells me that we're just not done learning yet... And so on my mission of discovery, I'll share my insights with you and maby I'll learn something from you, too.

One thing is for certain though - not everyone tries to learn. Not everyone is so keen on discovery. Some people, it seems, just don't care to learn anything new. Survival of the fittest?? Huh? Well there are too many people on this planet anyway!

As for cats?? Well they ruled the earth once - mine rules my home now... I guess the old phrase of 'treat 'em mean; keep 'em keen' still applies. Yes, Gizzy, I'll be right there...
