Ooh, there are lots of attractions that are pretty close to home that are still on my bucket list. In fact, as I am writing this, I am asking myself what is really stopping me from ticking at least some of them off this year??? Feels like a new goal is brewing…

Giba Gorge

This is a beautiful nature reserve that has a mountain bike park as well as hiking trails. They have a restaurant, although I think there are also picnic sites. It’s about a 40-minute drive from my home, so it’s not too far away. My friends and I have planned a hike in the next week or two, and I am really hoping we do go.

I am keeping it short and sweet today.

Thanks for popping by. Be blessed.

31 Days of Gratitude – Day 16

Today was a good day. I had brunch with a friend after a long time. The venue was beautiful. It was an outdoor cafe called the Neighbourhood Cafe. It was quite a peaceful place. It was great to catch up with my friend. She has been the backbone of my support system in Durban since my son and I moved back here in 2011. I truly value and appreciate her.

31 Days of Gratitude- Day 14

Today was a good day. My son reached his destitation safely. Our team had a great afternoon together and certain things that had concerned me, fell into place. God just always makes a way. I am so thankful for His Grace. Lastly, it was just a stunning day in Durban today. Of course the thing that would really top this day off would be if Morocco wins their match tonight! I will defintely be praying for them and keeping my fingers crossed. It’s time for Africa (Waka Waka eh eh)! 🙂
