Week is flying by...finally got the pictures uploaded.

Check the flower power...or LaFleur.
Rugby this weekend again at Wynberg this time. Also we're invited to a Braii at some Mennonites' home. It is a blind braii as we don't know these people but were linked up by Dan and Yvonne Nighswander. I've already got the chicken in a marinade and the wine lined up by the door.

What a weekend.
Friday, sold my notebook and shipped it to JoBurg. Now notebookless. Feel naked. I may need Al and Ruth to bring one for me. We'll see. Notebooks here are much more money so I won't buy one here.
Saturday morning, rugby at SACS. Henry's team lost game one but came on strong in game two to overpower their opponents. Henry scored his first try. That was exciting! Luckily he got pushed over in the endzone because I think with all the excitement he forgot to put the ball down for the score. This caused him to touch the ball to the ground. Afterwards we headed to the bowling alley for Katy's party. This went well...nobody got hurt.
On Sunday we decided to forego church to see the flowers in the West Coast National Park. This was a good decision (though we don't know how church went) since the flowers were in fantastic shape, the sun was out and it was warm. To top it off, just as we were pulling up to have our picnic we spotted whales in the Bay and watched them for a few hours. That is amazing to watch. We went with some friends from Forest Hill here and I'll post pictures once I get better connected with Carla's laptop.
