March 2009


Autumn is slowly getting here. Still we're enjoying pleasant temperatures between 20 and 25 degrees and breakfast can still be served on the terrace.

A successful participation to the B&B expo with thanks to Daan, Denise and Carine.

Family & friends @ African Queen jan. 2009





We've been feeling a little bit back at home in Belgium with the visit from some familiar faces. After Carine and her friend Mieke stayed with us for 10 days, they were joined by dad Rolle. He hadn't seen the finished house after being here for the very beginning of the renovation works. After a week of severe flew, he was back to health and maintaing 'his garden'.
Monica and Pieter also arrived on sunday. We couldn't wait to take them for a walk on the beach and sundowners at the Red Herring.

UNO!!!

kerstdag bij anke en philippe van zensa lodge met iets teveel drankjes
kerstavond: apero aan het lapavuur bij zonsondergang
Met de belofte dat ze erna de Christmas crackers mochten openen, ging het courgettesoep er wonderbaarlijk gemakkelijk in bij alle kindjes!

De guesthouse vanuit de lucht met dank aan 'Heli Steven & Natacha' wij zijn de kleine zwaaiende stipjes ter hoogte van het zwembad!

Ready for the season!

It looks like it's going to be a busy festive season at the African Queen, for now we're enjoying Carine's last days here and then it's back to work!




Gorgeous crayfish meal on the beach in Paternoster @ Voorstrandt restaurant. A real treat!
