Sun, Sand and Seafood

Last weekend we spent a day at Sinkwasi (about 60 km from here). The sun was warm and the waves were jade. Near the horizon we could see the big white splashes of whales breeching every now and again.




I managed to make a quick miniature watercolour sketch.  What fascinated me most, was the near-translucent jade colour of the breaking waves:






Travis caught something for the pan. If he doesn't catch, it means there is no fish :-)


We were there at dead low tide and managed to collect some sizable mussels.
(We each have a licence)

 


Since we also bought some crayfish from divers, we ended up with a feast for supper!  (They are lying on their backs, so as not to spill the yummie lemon-garlic butter!)



Des did most of the cooking and we had alovely meal.

Ek wonder wat maak ek hier! Ek was vandag op die strand by ST andrews maar ek se vir jou die brandertjies is plat en slap en yl en ver en net nie baldadig en blou en mooi soos in SA nie! Ek se heeldag vir Charles ons moet vir ons 'n ander land soek.
