Dolphins doing backflips

We had the most amazing sight of hundred of dolphins, including one doing high backflips. Absolutely wonderful.

Nothing beats the sunset at Llandadno, watching the sun set over the surfers. It's well worth the temporary pain of trying to find a parking spot! The highlight of the evening for me was getting to leap with Sam. What a great leaper she is!

Two Ocean's Fun Run

I had every intention of keeping up with my little nephew on this 5 km fun run but after 5 minutes I realised that was going to be impossible! So I took it easy and enjoyed walking and chatting with Jo, punctuated by some occasional running. We didn't break any speed records, but thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere. And we had enough energy to sprint the last 100 metres to the finish in front of all the crowds!!

The joys of having a pesky nephew

Here we are a fun party in Elgin. Matt did his very best to ensure I didn't overheat in the sun!

Party at an apple farm in Elgin

We went to the birthday party of Kaitlin, Richard and Kerry's daughter. It was held on their parent's apple farm. What an absolutely gorgeous setting! The kids (and adults) had a wonderful time cycling and frolicking in the pool, enjoying the gorgeous weather. Lots of great food too. All in all, a wonderful day.

Thanks, Jo, for most of the great photos below.

Clifton sundowners

This is Cape Town at its very best. Not even Sydney can compete with Clifton at sunset. It was lovely to chill out on the beach and see Mary-Anne again. We had the most gorgeous swim in the bracing water.
