A visit to Melkbos

Off we went this morning to spend a lovely day with Em & Jay in Melkbos. After a yummy breakfast we all went to the beach and Jason & I went into the water with a surfboard and a stand up paddle board (fun!), while the Grace and the ladies played on the beach. 

I enjoyed Grace’s recollection of the day when I asked her. After no response to, “What was your favourite part of the day?” I started prompting.

D: “We went to Emily and Jason and had croissants for breakfast.”
G: “And bacon.”
D: “Then we went to the beach. What did you do on the beach?”
G: “Played in puddles. So-o sandy.”

Because that is not at all what we would expect from the beach….

I do think that her favourite part of the day was climbing onto their couch, standing on the arm and launching herself off onto their FatSak. After I told her to say “Bonsai!” when jumping off it went, “One, two, three….Bon” jump “sai”. Super loads of fun.
