a long lazy w/end

ed and i went away to clanwilliam this easter and had a wonderfully relaxed w/end. lots of food, drink, late nights and even later mornings. the weather was pretty damn cool too. we also bought some more pellet guns (the plastic pellet type) and the boys shot the crap out of each other, with a few choice shots from the girls might i add. check out the pictures

driving back was a bit of nightmare and the route we took is highly unrecommended if you're not driving a bakkie or 4x4 of some sorts. we decided to go through lamberts bay and head along the west coast... alas there are few tar roads and many gravel ones that aren't good for big cars like combi's. we ended up breaking down 3 times.

a journey that should've been no more than 2-3 hours took more than 6 hours. we eventually got stuck just outside of piketberg (so much for the coastal route) and had to wait for help in the form of elkart having to travel all the way from melkbos to simply give us a jump start... sheez! nobody stopped to help us, which doesn't say much for mank-ind.

this left us running mighty late for dinner with dyan, vincent, melanie, sharon and gareth. which was scheduled at 7:30pm, round about the time we finally got the car started again. we finally got to dinner exhausted, thirsty and hungry at 9pm.

if you're in the table view area, you must give colours a try. it's above mimmos where the old saddles used to be, just before countdown and doodles along the beachfront.
