I always plant a strelitzia in the garden of every home I live in because it was the "emblem" of my SA Army unit.
We found a strelitzia plant when we moved into our new home almost 2 years ago and, after careful nurturing, it has eventually bloomed.
We visited the Indian Ocean island of Mauritius back in 2007. Haven't been back since because we discovered the island of Zanzibar which we believe is better value for money. Anyone been there recently? Is it still so comparatively expensive?
Exploring on a bike
So today I checked out Florida Library where I spent many afternoons as a schoolboy.
Its changed a bit over the years.
Yip, I was a bit of a nerd. I liked sports like rowing so I guess I was an athletic nerd.
🫣😜😂
Wall dive!
Probably my best dive ever. It started as a wall dive and ended on a wreck.

Exploring on a bike.
After a month off due to various "issues", I'm back on the bike again.
Here, in Florida Park, there is now a car spares shop where Zorba the Greek's Cafe once stood.
This was where I played Asteroids and Space Invaders as a boy.
Pretty kitty.
Our much-loved "non-pet" when we lived in Nelspruit.
Sokkies was an amazing cat. She was an incredible hunter who kindly brought me bats, birds and rats.
Why "non-pet" you ask? She belonged to our neighbours but seemed to prefer our company.
This is me finishing the 55km 947 MTB Challenge in 2013. That song about the girl who crashed the car off a bridge but that she didn't care was playing as I crossed the finish line. I heard that song again today on the radio, which brought back memories.
I'm always amazed at the density of vegetation near water.
And I'm impressed when lodge owners are able to incorporate nature into the layout of their properties.

In case you were wondering where I was, we nipped down to Lake St Lucia for a little "down time". Stayed at Nibela Lake Lodge. This was the view from our unit. Came back relaxed, tanned and complete with a box of Hluhluwe pineapples.
Shout out to Suzuki Rivonia.
My 2014 SX4 was booked in for its 195000km service today.
I checked it in at 07:10.
They were finished just before 09:00.
Admittedly, it was an oil service ... but WOW!
Gorgeous river.
Olifants River Gorge, Kruger National Park, 2009
As a SANParks official, I got to go places in SA's largest National Park very few other people have been. Like this place for example.
