WWC Team Building

Last weekend got off to a World Wide Creative weekend start with leaving drinks for Rowan, who has left us to run his own venture in Mossel Bay. We all spent the evening at Quay 4 at The Waterfront, and watched the final day of the cricket.

Saturday we all met at a culinary school in Cape Town to learn to cook a three course meal, all members of staff & partners and wives came along and we had to split into groups of three. It was great fun with flowing wine and finally the chance to sample our efforts at the end.

We made Spinach & Feta Filo parcels, Portuguese Lamb with mash and baby marrows, followed by Tiramisu. It was all very delicious. More photos can be seen here:http://www.flickr.com/photos/worldwidecreative/

Easter in Bilsington

Had a wonderful Easter. Nya was with us on Good Friday while her mama and daddy went to Rye for lunch and a wander around the town. Nya went to church with Lucia and I in the afternoon. She is so good and does not even talk much just whispers to Oma or Cia.
Saturday morning was beautiful so Ed and I decided to go for a walk through the woods before breakfast. They are so beautiful at the moment, just bursting into life.
Traer, Terry & Nya came late afternoon and stayed until Monday evening so we had a great weekend.

Some pics of our weekend and Nya's egg hunt.How many eggs have I got?

La Gomera

The first week of March, Ed & I spent the week on La Gomera, one of the Canary Islands, where John the Martian lives and works. What an wonderful, peaceful place. The flora of the island is amazing. The hills have been eroded over the years but are covered in such varied vegetation. it just depends which side of the small island you are on. Every coastal area has to be approached by first driving to the central summit then descending in the direction one needs to go. The summit is most often covered in cloud so there is a rain forest - oh so beautiful. It really has to be seen to be appreciated. It is a hiker's paradise and would definitely rate 10 out of 10 for Warren & Pete. One can fly into a stunning modern small airport but most tourists fly to the south of Teneriffe and take a taxi to Los Christianos port where they catch a ferry to San Sebastian on La Gomera. We were met at San Sebastian by John and then drove to Val Gran Rey where we stayed.
Below just a few pics from our holiday.
