D Day Plus Nine

Time is flying by and we are slowly getting there, in keeping with the pace of life in Knysna. I bumped into my daughter Karen in the shopping mall today and she said the problem with living in a small town is getting things done, she had ordered two new tyres from Speedy Exhaust and Tyres and they had to come from Port Elizabeth, no problem they should be here by 09h00 today, so she leaves it until 10h00 and when she gets there they say they only have one tyre the other is still on the truck, but he will be back after he has done his other deliveries because it must have been mixed up with other goods. I told her that that is a "con" but think of the "pro's" there is no way I would have bumped into her in Johannesburg. So we had coffee and killed another hour and Speedy had still not phoned her, just heard that the second tyre was on another truck and they are changing the tyres now at 14h30, Speedy by any other name?

Last week we had our Pink Loerie festival and Denise and I went to watch the Float parade very colourful and quite a lot of fun the "Queens" were stunning and as Denise commented guys have much nicer legs than girls, if you do not believe me see photo below. The festival brings a lot of business and into the town so we should not complain whatever your leaning.

Our first stop in 9 days time is Clanwilliam so I thought I would share some of the photos of the flower season in that part of beautiful South Africa.
