We went on a mini family holiday with my mom and brother this past weekend. On Friday afternoon we all piled into the car and headed for Franskraal.
As soon as we arrived we headed for a swim in the ocean - the water was FREEZING and the late afternoon air is no longer as warm as a month ago, which is the small tell tale sign that Summer is almost over. David and my brother were hesitant to jump in to the ocean but after explaining that you can't go on holiday by the ocean and not swim they willingly participated it the swimming part.
Saturday was a bit gloomy weather wise, but we still packed a picnic and headed for Stanford to find the Saturday market before heading to the Klein River Cheese Farm. Once we got to the farm we tasted some yummy cheese before feeding the many farm animals. A highlight for me was feeding a cow and seeing the baby goat.
Lunch on Saturday was a picnic in the rain on the side of the road - we failed to find a picnic table along the road. We always see them until you want one.
When we headed back to Franskraal the weather cleared up and it was time for a swim in the sea - this time we braved the ocean via some rock pools and avoided the waves at the beach.
Sunday was a lazy morning spent sleeping in, drinking coffee and a beach walk before heading home after lunch.
All in all it was a GRAND weekend with my mom and brother. I really am blessed to have them in my life.
