Itchy Feet

Take it easy, take it slow...

^{Wannabe Silver Bloggers}

...well at least most some of the time!

Life as a #silverblogger can be like a rollercoaster ride - full of ups and downs.
Running a home-based side hustle post-retirement does have some benefits.

Waking up to a beautiful day and having itchy feet; unplanned excursions often turn out the best, as I shared last week when we took off to see the hidden treasures at Netherwood Farm in Nottingham Road, KZN Midlands.

The real Silver Bloggers @artywink and me enjoying the sun, fresh air, and, the silence, no need for chitter-chatter!

We really did not want to leave this magical place and took the slow Midlands Meander road on the way back home.

There only was time for one more stop along the way to take home delicious goods from The Daily Bagel Bakery and admire some of the quaint shops.

Needless to say, we will be back as we missed way too much.

Once back on the highway, we had to hold onto our seats as hubby's foot was a tad heavy on the accelerator because I had to be back in time to prep dinner for our young guests.

As we drove into our suburb, hubby mentioned one word - takeaway! Yep, that's what it was going to be as I did not want to end such a sublime day on a rushed note, so off it was to Curry-O's for Bunny Chows which everyone who visits Durban, HAS to experience. Yes eating this typical local dish is quite an experience. A hollowed-out quarter loaf of bread, filled with spicy hot curry, really is delicious, and The Curry O's make the very best curries - Vegan as well as Seafood, Chicken, Beef, and Mutton.

What could be easier, simply placing a neat box filled with a Mutton Bunny on a plate for each of our guests;)

I had quite a bit of admin catch-up to do, so stayed at home later in the week when hubby took our expat guest from Australia, on a fishing trip to Umdoni on the South Coast.
The weather was lovely and the seawater looked perfect, but the guys didn't see any seagulls nor came home with any freshly caught fish. They had to be satisfied with buying fish & chips along the way back.

Hubby took some really nice photos, but where are the fish?

An old railway track - sadly most of our railway lines have been plundered beyond repair, so there are no trains running along our KZN coast anymore, nor many other main lines, although this section still is untouched.

I hope you enjoyed a little glimpse into a week of smooth waters for this Silver Blogger who's wishing you a wonderful new week!
