The birds and the bees enjoying a feast of nectar and pollen provided by this winter-flowering Greathead Aloe.
Only one more day left here at the beach before our 600 km drive up to our daughter’s house in Johannesburg. It’s been a wonderful month with lots of time spent with my sister and good friends. The sound of the crashing waves is music to my ears, something I’m really going to miss,
This is so neat!
Thank you. 😃

Whereabouts in England? 🙂
In South Africa.
I meant when you visited England…. 🙂
We were in York with our granddaughter. After that we went to West Sussex to visit family and then a couple of days in London.
Great photo.
I miss those beaches. ♥
Me too.
SIGH. I could just imagine what those waves sound like, Sylvia. SO happy for you that you are having such a great vacation. 🌟🌟🌟
Thanks so much, AmyRose. xx
Safe travels to you. This really is a beautiful photo.
Thanks, Amy. 😃
A beautiful photo. Like you I love to be near crashing waves or running water.
Thanks, Otto. 🙂
Needless to say that you are having a wonderful time with your family. I know everyone is so happy to see you. Enjoy!
Thanks, Karen. We’re having so much fun with family in England at the moment. 😃
What an interesting looking plant, do you happen to know what it is?
A Greathead Aloe.
Thanks!
Beautiful capture, Sylvia ❤ I love to be by any body of water, so relaxing in so many ways!
Thanks so much, Donna. Although I’m not a swimmer, I love to be by the water. As you so rightly say, it’s very relaxing.
The aloes are out and it’s a perfect vista!
Thanks, Ally. It was a good time of year to visit. 🙂
Yes, the mild winters along the coast are lovely!
Beautiful image, Sylvia! I can imagine how much you’ll miss it!!!! xoxoxo
Thanks so much, Marina. 😘
xoxoxo
I love this shot! ❤ I'd stay and watch it longer to see the birds enjoy themselves but if bees decided to have a feast, I'll run away as far as I could.
Thanks, Jessica. There were a lot of bees around but I guess I’m not sweet enough for them. 😃
Nah, they simply prefer the flower. haha 😀
Remove the flower and they might mistake you for a flower, which should never happen, god it hurt so much to get stung.
I love the beautiful contrast of blue and yellow in your photo. Safe travels and continued happy holidays!
Thanks, Carol. We’re almost at our daughter’s house. Just got to navigate the Johannesburg rush hour traffic. 🤗
That doesn’t sound pleasant.
Safe travels up to Joburg..
Thanks, Lisa. Almost at Harrismith.
So glad you have had such a lovely time.
Thank you. It was really most enjoyable but now we’re home again and I’m loving it. 🙂
Enjoy the next stage of your trip
Thanks, Derrick. We did, very much.
Safe journey, hon 🙂 🙂
Thanks, Jo. 😘
You are such a “good” traveler! Have fun on the next leg of your journey.
Thanks, Nancy. I try to be good. 😅😘
A lovely shot of those birds enjoying the Beach Cafe’.
Thanks, YC. 🙂
Wow fantastic so near by the sea
The perfect location. 😃
Safe travels. I enjoyed your posts – so much joy resonating through WIFI!
Thanks so much, Rebecca. 😘
Wow – fabulous!
Thanks, Fi. 🙂
lovely photo, Sylvia. thanks for sharing this beautiful part of the world. have a great time with family 🙂 🙂
Thanks, Lola. 🙂
Great photo. I lived within the sound of crashing waves for several years. At night when everything else was so quiet I often imagined the waves were about to swallow us up as we lay in bed… but I miss that sound for sure…
Thanks, Roslyn. I’m missing the sound of the waves now were back home, but we do have a silent lake right outside. 🙂
Have a safe trip to Johannesburg Sylvia.
Thanks, Aletta. We enjoyed the rest of our trip and are now back home. 🙂
That is great
I wish we lived closer to the sea to hear those crashing waves, but at least we are not so far away. I’d miss that location too, especially when in Johannesburg! But I am sure seeing your daughter and family will make up for it.
Thanks, Jude. The rest of our trip was delightful, but it’s good to be back home again. 🙂
Nothing like home is there? And your own bed.
Absolutely. 😀
Sounds like you’re having a ball!
Well, not quite ‘a ball’, but we did do a lot of walking. 🙂
😊😊
Beautiful! 🙂
Thanks, Lynette. 🙂
The flowering Greathead Aloe looks wonderful. Enjoy the beach and crashing waves, and have a good trip to see your daughter…what a great holiday you are having.
Thanks so much, Gerrie. 🙂
How wonderful! Beautiful image.
Peta
Thanks so much, Peta. 🙂
That’s a fabulous image. Glad you are having a great time … keep having fun. Safe journey.
Thanks so much, Frank. Home safe again. 🙂
The sound of crashing waves – oh yes, I can so empathise with that! Have a lovely time with your daughter. 🙂
Thank you so much. We did have a wonderful visit with our daughter before travelling to England to see more family. 🙂
