Relax, take it eeeeeeeeeeeeeasy!

At the end of April we finished off a very succesful second season. It was extended by one week due to the Vulcano eruption in Iceland. At least some good things came out of that: Camille and Mickey learned from Denise how to knit. After the skies had cleared and everyone (included the moms who were here for the whole month to meet their first grandson) returned back home, we enjoyed some piece for the first time in months. But most of all, we took some time off to enjoy parenthood.

We made use of the calm month of May to do some patch-up works. A few new windows, a new showerdoor in the honeymoon room, a bit of paint here and there....

Julian kreeg ondertussen zijn eerste feestje waarbij hij werd voorgesteld aan onze zuid afrikaanse vrienden.

The Worldcup Football started on the 11th of June. The South African national team scored the opening goal and finished their first game with a 1-1 draw against Mexico. The whole nation is caught up in the Soccer frenzy. Everywhere in the streets one can see national flags, hear the vuvuzela's, people cheering on their Bafana Bafanas (translated into Our Boys) and most cars drive around decorated in the national colours. A very special feeling to see a nation once so divided, now so united because of this little game named soccer..
