THE ABC OF IT







Want me eating out of your hand? Then show passion for this wonderful town I live in. St Helena Bay (and specifically Britannia Bay) is, to use a hackneyed word but it works here, awesome and not a day goes by that I don't recognise that fact. (Yes, readers, I've gaaned-aan about this before ad nauseum.)
But it takes guests from Gauteng to nudge-remind me that I am indeed blessed to have a view to die for (bestest office on earth: from my PC I get to watch dolphins surfing the shoreline while I "talk" to the real world).
And so it was that the Boyce family arrived on New Year's Day and spent six nights revelling in unseasonally calm West Coast weather (ja, gewoonlik waai dit soos dit bars dié tyd van die jaar,kêrels).
What a great bunch they were, at the ready to explore the seaside towns and coastline and taking in the atmosphere of the area, including the National (Cerebos) Saltworks at Velddrif and a visit to the West Coast Fossil Park.
I call them The ABC family: The(o), A(shley), B(arry and) C(onnie) and in my book they were top of their class! It might be many years before we meet again, but you will be one of the really super guests I welcomed to Dolphin B&B+S/C in St Helena Bay.
