200804 Philippa and Michael Woodruff’s wedding.
Jennifer and I arrived at about 2.30 pm at the Johannesburg Country Club for the wedding. There were about 10 people in the room and I took out my camera. I looked across the room to take photos and saw the back of a head that looked exactly like Keiths. Imagine my shock when I he turned and it was Keith. It was as though someone hit me in the stomach. It was more shock than I need in my life. Once I recovered it was amazing to see him. 
Elizabeth and her team arranged wonderful flowers all over the room.
Quaker meeting was lovely when they made their promises to each other. 
Amy and Zoe were the Flower girls.
Silvermist visit April 2008
I flew to Johannesburg to meet Margie with whom I would drive to Silvermist. Unfortunately Margie took ill so Kate drove from Polokwane to fetch me from the Johannesburg airport. A 7 hour drive !!!!
I was delighted to see this driveway on the farm. 
I stayed in this charming cottage on the farm.
I was delighted to visit Peter D’Arcy-Hermann. 
Amy and Zoe went to a friend who made their flower girl dresses for Philippa and Mike’s wedding.
Zoe played with make-believe rabbits while Amy worked on the new ABC puzzle.
We went to Johannesburg. The first night Zoe and Amy met their new cousin Edward.
While I was staying with Jennifer, we took Alister and Zoe to the Zoo to find a polar bear. It was a lovely outing to see the improved zoo. The children managed the walking so well.

Mother’s Day 11 May 2008
Tia and Eyal gave me bunches of flowers and chocolates which made me very happy. Jon arrived with more flowers and food for a delicious breakfast. We started with grapefruit before muesli and then Jon created the most beautiful looking breakfast. He made a tower of flapjacks, creamed spinach, smoked salmon, poached eggs and avocado. We drank sparkling wine. It was delicious and we did not eat for the rest of the day.
The weather was cold and windy so we all slept. Then Eyal, Jon and I went for a walk to Muizenberg on the path next to the sea and below the railway line. We crossed the line at Muizenberg station and walked up the hill through the park to Boyes Drive. The view of the waves rolling in was wonderful.
It was a wonderful Mother’s Day as I seldom see my children on Mother’s day.
