Day 15: Salt plains

We are fortunate that we can walk from our house to the salt plains.
On Monday we took a long walk with our dogs and we spotted a beautiful dried branch that we have taken home. It remains a wonderful thing; seeing flamingos while walking the dogs. 

Day 14: Today is my day off

With my feet in the pool I was planning things to do for today.
My sweet dog Lola came to sit beside me, also with her ​​legs in the water...that was a funny moment.


Happy weekend all!

Day 13: From Canada with love

After almost 4 months, we finally received mail! The postman did not even have to step out of his car, I was ready to welcome him. And between the pile of bills, I saw a beautiful pink envelope from Canada, with love.
Thanks Crystal!

Day 12: Campfire on the beach

There is something about campfire.  I love the hippie atmosphere  and it gives me  a feeling of freedom.  Bbq with friends on the beach, is one of my favorite things to do.  I love Saturday afternoons. 

Day 10: Somebody got mail

I love to surprise my good friends and family with little gifts. My good friend Silvia has just let me know that she received my gift. I know that she's happy with it, which made my day! 

The photo was taken by Silvia

Day 9: Today we took a long walk

Actually this forest is locally known as the 'zoutpannen' or 'knoek'. We walked for an hour in the blazing sun and the dogs loved it. Poor Rick James took a little break to recover while the ladies - Lola Vegas and Polly Maggoo- ran into the water, chasing birds. 

Day 7: Today is inspirational

Last week was very busy, spend a lot of hours at work and couldn't find the time and inspiration to write.
So, after a short break it's time to continue my photo diary and some writing. Stay tuned for some fun blog posts this week! 

 

Day 5 : Yesterday was fun!

The pictures show how much fun we had together! 

Day 4 - Today is colorful

Today we visited the 'houtjesbaai' for some driftwood to decorate our home and garden. With the dogs in the backseat, some nice background music and some phone calls (for the direction), we  have founds lots of great driftwood and natural stone. The handmade nameplates where attached to a piece of bamboo which then was secured to the wall. 

Day 3 - Today is sweet

I was playing with my two little friends Indi and Zomer this afternoon. I asked Zomer (she is almost 4) is she knew how to take a picture with my blackberry. With a little instruction, she took a lot of photo's of me and her little sister. Here are the results. They are so sweet.

Day 2 - Today is cozy

After a 'hangover trip' with the guys in Colombia, my love is home again. Today is cozy. 

Day 1 - A photo each day

For my birthday, Maaike and Laura took me to a ceramic painting workshop at Polka Dots.
A week later I picked up my painted pottery and this is the result! Love it.

before it went in the oven....

My 30 days project: a daily dose of blissful things

For some time I want to take more pictures of daily life and the little things that makes me happy. It's a shame that most of the time, only the major events in life are documented and the 'little things' in life often go unnoticed. That's why I will share my blissful things with a photo each day for the next 30 days. I hope you will get inspired to document your happy moments.

Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were big things.Robert Brault
