A New Year, A New Start

Happy New Year to all! I hope everyone had a spectacular festive season and that you’re all ready for 2013. A new year symbolises a fresh start, with resolutions and hearts filled with optimism. This post upload was delayed due to my limited access to internet at our holiday spot, nonetheless here it is.

Getting the jet-ski sorted

I am still on my annual family vacation, which we take every year to our timeshare spot in Sedgefield. It gives us the opportunity to reconnect, share experiences and just recharge the batteries. By the time we leave Ghaalid and I are in desperate need of a break after another crazy year of work, work and kids.

This year we have gran, an aunt and uncle and the little nephew joining us, which was good fun. A regular full house, but these moments are so precious to my kids and it creates lasting memories. The kids run around all day from early morning, jet skiing, canoeing, swimming and playing games. It’s a time with no Playstation, very little TV, braaing, board games and wholesome outdoor fun.

I wish all my readers and followers a prosperous 2013, and a huge thank you for all the support :-)

Holiday Lookpost:

An outfit worn for a morning trip to the Od Biscuit Mill. One of my favourite spots, a lovely place to spend a drizzly summer morning.

The weather was unusually cool for December (and rainy)

I love this photography store & gallery

Their food market offerings are divine
