Catching Waves - Part 1

We were at Britannia Bay on South Africa's West Coast when I took these photos of Robbie and Amanda boogie boarding. I don't think they had a lot of success catching waves that day. The sea was a bit wild and choppy. I was impressed that Amanda showed no fear. I chose these images because of the waves. They created so much drama. The last photo is my favorite.

Sisters and Cats at the Beach

When you think of the beach and the sea, cats don't usually come to mind, but today you'll get to meet two. My in-laws live at Britannia Bay on South Africa's West Coast and they own two cats named Timmy and Tammy. The sisters are our two youngest children, Samantha and Amanda. I love the sea in these photos. The waves make a stunning backdrop and create a lot of atmosphere. The photos were taken over our December holiday.

On the West Coast at Velddrif

Every Christmas holiday we enjoy taking an afternoon drive to Velddrif on South Africa's West Coast. It's not far from my in-laws' beach house. On this outing our two oldest kids accompanied us, Jeremiah and Jessica.

Velddrif is a coastal fishing town, located on the estuary where the Berg River flows into St. Helena Bay. The estuary is home to a variety of birds and is a popular spot for birdwatching. Other activities are fishing, yachting, and visiting art galleries. The town also has two large salt works that provide most of the salt for the Western Cape. I got photos of the Cerebos salt factory from the car while Hubby was driving.
