Fish Hoek sunrise, walk and swim

A glorious sunrise, walk and swim at Fish Hoek Beach  followed by a hot cup of tea and a ginger biscuit. Life is good!

Sam's 25th birthday

I can't believe my wonderful niece who I rushed home from the Otter Trail to see as a newborn baby in 2000 has just turned 25!  It feels like yesterday. Where does the time go?

Angkor Wat

Angkor Wat is Cambodia's most famous ancient temple and deservedly so.  It's absolutely epic in scale and is unbelievably well preserved, as its never been left to ruin.  Its full of beautiful carved figures and its so large that its possible, even in busy times, to find quiet chambers to just be.  I visited Angkor Wat three times; its the kind of place you can never grow tired of.  

Blessed on the 2nd go with a beautiful pink sky.

Climbing up to the upper sanctum of Angkor Watt.

The upper chambers and courtyard were very peaceful when I got there.  A wonderful place to meditate.
