Today was an absolute fabulous day! I worked, and the kids were all on their best behaviors and just ridiculously cute all day. The weather was awesome. During my lunch break I walked up to the beach and there was an ice cream man there. So I got a cone, sat on the boardwalk, and ready my book while taking in the scenery--the water was especially blue today and Table Mountain was clear as could be. And I saw a seal in the water. Kinda cool.
Tonight we all had planned to go to Mama Africa's. If you remember, I went there my first week here and ate all those different meats. Well a huge group of us went tonight and nobody else had been there before, so it was a treat for them. There was live music again, which was amazing as usual, but then the band I saw last time walked in!! This was awesome! The lead singer of that band was a great singer, but so much of an entertainer. I was hoping I'd see them again before I left. He didn't sing while I was there, but he did dance and you should have seen the place transform when he got there. Just at that time the band that was already performing kinda stepped it into high gear. It was awesome. The music and energy there tonight, and pretty much everywhere you go here, is just unbelievable. People are so free, and entertaining, and lively. I love it! I couldn't have ended the trip better than seeing that band again. I'm a total groupie now. Anyway....I'm still on a high clearly. haha Oh, and this time I got the ostrich fillet...yummy!
Also--today I took some videos of Lona & Ntlanta (my babies!) so you can see them in action. They're not doing a ton, but I know the videos will totally make me smile when I'm home. So just follow the links if you want to see them.
