My desk

This is my desk, this is where I sit everyday of my life.

To note;

• Two screens,
• One cup of coffee,
• Window on left (although over exposed) that is my sea view,
• and lastly one large oak desk.

Cheers and have a fantastic weekend.

PS, I am off to Hermanus this weekend to see MORE whales.

Muizenberg whale breaching

When they say a whale of a time - I now know where the saying comes from. I this not a awesome site, in my humble opinion just as good a sighting as any African land based mammal.

Cheers

Muizenberg whales

My whales have been sitting outside my office window for the past week (at least), yip they have throw down anchor and are just parking off. No surfers out this morning, otherwise you would have seen how close these two species actually get, the dark water in front of the whale is normally the area where the waves break.

Cheers

Ibis

Always look up!

Muizenberg ghetto's

Every city and town in the world has one - so Muizenberg decided to join it's glodal cousins.

Muizenberg scenery

After a few beers last night and that awful morning after feeling, I am really struggling. On my way to work on such a beaut of a morning, this was my vista. Feeling a tad better, though.

Cape Town Presidential Naval Review

Cape Town Presidential Naval Review is happening as we speak, the South African navy is parading it's self in front of the President "Thabo Mbeki"

We do not have the biggest navy ever, but I suppose do we really need one?

Anyways, I am out of here.

Cheers

Oh dear!

The next few post are going to be from my desk, playing rugby last night I pulled my groin muscle.
Oh la la, it is sore.

Anyways the South African navy is preparing for the "Presidential Naval Fleet Review"

Cheers for now

Sorry of the past couple of blogs!

I was up bright and early this morning and after the past couple of days of bad weather and all (lol), this is what the Muizenberg beach was about. It has clouded over now but hey I have the proof that the sun was out this morning.

OK, so now my apologies for the past couple of blogs, here goes the sob story;
- On Friday my wife and I where supposed to go to Victoria Falls for the weekend.
- Zambian President has past away and was lying in state in Livingstone, the trip was canceled.
- Bother.
- I had pre scheduled posts for all my blogs for the time that I was away (all the others sit on wordpress and muizenbergdaily sits on blogger/ blogspot).
- Now that I was not away, one of the biggest storms to hit Cape Town in +- 3 years arrives.
- So I go out and take loads of pictures of the waves and rough seas etc etc.
- So what I wanted to do was suspend the scheduled posts (after the posts where posted) and post the storm photographs.
- This is where things went pear shaped.
- Blogger in unexpected form decided that I could not re-schedule a post that had already been posted to another day - even when I told it not to (wordpress allows one to do this.).
- My only option was to delete the posts but I thought that would have been a waste - oh well.
- So sorry for the double posts, it was blogger/ blogspot's inability to allow me to manage my posts (scheduled or not), not me - lol.

Anyways have to go, loads of work to do.

PS I would love to compete in these theme days but have no idea of what to do - could anybody advise.

Cheers

Huge Muizenberg Wave

I fear that this image might just not show how big the wave on the horizon actually is.

Anyways sitting at my desk, i looked up and by chance saw this wave. Now if you look at the centre of the photograph on the horizon there is a distinctive white line. That my friends is a HUGE wave, now the boat on the left hand side is closer than that wave (just to give you some kind perspective), that wave is at least double the distance between me and the boat.

Anyways, I have just turn the heater on and am wishing summer was here.

Cheers

The back streets of Muizenberg

Still trying to get those photographs of Victoria Falls together, but in the mean time this photograph was taken +- 5-6 blocks back from the beach front.

Love the colours of all the building back here.

Cheers
