Mondays

Mondays are normally our free day, though we've ended having to work quite a few the last weeks. We keep it as family day. So, two weeks ago we saddled up the car (going away for a day with children means packing half your house) and head up the Western Coast of the Cape. The area is known for it's wild flowers, now in spring time. So we went to a park that's just open two months of the year, to see the wild flowers.

It was such a blessed day. Beautiful weather, all together, in nature created by God's own hands.

First we were met by an ostrich family.

For Carl we could go home after this, it is very seldom that you see a Caracal in the wild.

A pelican flying over your head, might be common to some, not so much to us.

Also really special, we were watching three of these bat-eared foxes playing in the field right next to the car.

And then there was the normal amount of antelope/buck/whatever you want to call them.

All surrounded by the most beautiful flowers.

And here to prove that we didn't pull those of the internet:
