It has been cold the last 2 days, with a howling South
Westerly wind, so it has been a case of stay indoors and wrap up. The best way
to warm the inside of the boat is to have the oven on so it was baking time, I
baked a bread, I baked some boerewors packages and I baked a cake…How well did
this bread come out?

I woke up this morning before the sun rose, I spent a bit of
time online checking emails…we got another rejection for Barry’s book, then
prepared myself for the day.
First on my list of To –Do items was to teach some QuantitativeChemistry, this may sound like a really bad way to start the day but it is
actually fun. Quantitative Chemistry involves a few calculations involving
moles, mass and molar mass…all calculated from the Periodic table of
elements…or as I call it the crib sheet. Rauen and I managed to get through the
whole chapter in a few hours and he headed down to his room to do the written
part of the work. This written part helps settle it in his mind, he summarises
the theory and does a few practise examples, asking for help where he needs it.
Now Barry and I are getting ready to head off to a site
meeting for a friend, Barry is wearing jeans for the first time in about a year
and I forgot how hot is ass looks…Maria eat your heart out!

This weekend we are planning no hitting the beaches with our
suntan lotion. We are heading down to Amamzimtoti as Barry’s parents are coming
down for the week so we will hit the beaches to the South from here.
We have already managed to sell a couple of bottles to
people we met or spoke to the last few days and are hoping the beaches will
rake in a few sales too.
Barry is once again hard at work on boat repairs and
maintenance, I don’t know where he gets the energy, but I guess it’s the same
as me getting up each morning and teaching…

We came down to Toti yesterday and only plan to leave
tomorrow morning, Barry has spent some time on the beach here and has managed
to sell a few bottle of suntan lotion. Today we took a walk up to Spur for
their special breakfast, being Father’s day and all.
After breakfast we decided to take a walk through the beach
front and up to Checkers to buy a hair brush for our niece Chante. I did the
paparazzi thing today and took snap shot and short video clips along the way,
the sights were awesome, the sandcastle display was magical, the street art was
treat to watch and the videos I took of Rauen’s skate boarding skill was
phenomenal!
Check out the You tube video of Rauen on his board skating
on the streets of Toti and the wonderful sights we saw on and along the beach
front!
What an amazing day!
