Hey girlies once again.
Went bum boarding at Snowscape on Sunday 13 May. Had loads of fun and even got in free cause my sister started working there the beginning of May. You know what they say - "it's not what you know but who you know" Hope you guys here in Pretoria are not freezing to much =)
PS For those of you who can't tell which one I am, I'm the one with the back to the camera

Anyway just thought I'd share some random photo's of things I've seen and done in the US thus far, I am not going to explain each photo, so if you are unsure of what is in the photo just let me know. Note that I have caught another shark (hie hie hie)! Take care.

6 - 9 April

Over the long Easter weekend went camping at Roc 'n Rope Adventures in Watervalboven. Although we did do a bit of hiking (once again), our main purpose for going was to do some rock climbing. There are 521 climbs that you can do there (of course we didn't do all of them!) The climbs are ranked on a scale of 1-34. I got up to 15, which is not bad considering that it was my first time and the girls that had done it before only got to 16! (the guys got to 18). Had loads of fun, although my knees are quite bruised and woke up on Saturday morning with a rash all over my legs!! It also rained a bit, but was not to bad. Heres some photos of me in action and of the view.... once again stunning views with no cars or houses in sight!















30 March - 1 April

The second weekend, from the 30 March - 1 April, went to Swinbure in Harrismiths. This time our main purpose was to do hiking.
As you can see did the Bald Ibis trials. Did a 12km hike not the Saturday, which took us about 3 hours. Then on the Sunday did a much harder 13km hike so took us about 4 hours. The views were absolutely amazing!!! Could just see mountains and fields for miles!!

We stayed in a big barn, which was really cool, except that we had a "friend" ie rat
Here is a photo of the group that went....





23 - 26 March

Hi girls

Hope everyone is good and that you had a great Easter weekend. Thought I would share what I have been up to the past 3 weekends.....

First of all from the 23 - 26 March went on a family holiday to Rustenburg Kloof. Had a nice relaxing time and did mini hikes on Saturday and Sunday. As you can see was suppose to + - 2km, but we made our own trial so ended up being about 6km, which took us 2.5 hours! We also managed to play some volleyball and tennis as well as relaxed in the pools. Below is just some photos of our hike.

Happy New Year


Hi Everyone!

Hope you are doing well, and that this year is very successful in every way!

A bit about my trip... Spain went well, just a bit difficult with the language barrier... but its cool... I am in London now, where I can pretty much understand the most of the people!

The picture is of the Plaza de Cebelius in Madrid. We went exploring Madrid for a few days... and this was one of my favourite plaza's. It is beautiful with all the Lions.

I'll post a picture of London soon... just want to take some!

Cyprus - Mediterranean...ha ha ha!!!!


Hi everyone


Hope your Christmases and New Year's were all great, wherever you were. Mine was absolutey wonderful with Matthew.


In case you were wondering, so much for warm weather in the mediterranean. Maybe in the summertime, but right now it is about 7°C and some days colder. I kinda missed out on the SA summer now, but don't have the added advantage of snow like Dori does!!


Xmas was a quiet dinner at home with Matthew and then we went to the Zimbabwean New Year's Party in Nicosia...how insane is that? At least there were some people who spoke Afrikaans and even though it cost us close to R850, we won a steam cooker (which I am certain cost a whole R50)!!


This place is not very pretty and the people aren't nice. Shopping is a headache, but that might be a good thing... We have a very nice apartment in the city and we do walk a lot. One very big advantage here is that crime is really not a problem. Matt and I go walking late at night and FAR without any hassles. Everything is HORRIBLY expensive... 1 CYP (Cypriot Pound) = R17, which means that the Nederburg wine we buy at CYP4,95 is about R85. Totally ridiculous!! Local wine is a bit cheaper, but bad for headaches. They also do not have ANY cider at all and I am really missing Savanna and Hunter's Dry.


We have met a nice few people and guess what...all the nice ones are South Africans...so far.


Good luck everybody. I hope 2007 brings all of us great luck and good fortune and is as much fun as 2006 was.


Love from Cyprus

Annie


P.S. The photo is Matt and I, in front of our "Christmas Tree"...that was the closest thing to a small tree we could find!! Also, we thought the lights we in a string - this is what happens when everything is in Greek and you do not understand it!!!
