Easter Sunday we leave for South Africa. We'll use our South African cell numbers till May 1:
Maud: +27765604009
Bram: +27768358656
Bram will be teaching another workshop at Pretoria University, while Maud visits friends. Before flying to the Netherlands on May 1 we'll have a short holyday together.
Right now our lives are dedicated to cleaning, packing, delivering last-minute orders, organizing in general, and a series of 'good bye'-events. The dogs do their best to pitch in by cleaning out fruits & vegetables. By now they are quite experienced pickers, especially Nadia...
Goodbyes means a lot of brunches, sundowners, braais. We had a nice goodbye-dinner at LJ & Dineo's. Actually that was LJ's goodbye because he left already last Saturday to visit his kids in the States. Last Sunday we had a brunch, meaning we loitered in Andre & Tears' yard the whole day while munching goodies from World Foods. We even had herring, Amsterdammer, Emmentaler, appelmoes and zure bommen!
Now that even the yard is weeded and the culled vegetation is burned, we are kind of ready to leave, although Maud never will be really ready to leave the view, the dogs, and etcetera behind.
