The Merchant, Beach Adventures And A Pinch Of Madness

Well Hello There Hivers And Travelers

It's officially the first morning of waking up in Dana Bay and well what do you know, the weather is absolutely amazing. It has been quite some time since the last time I've seen such a bright morning sun!

Does this mean we can go to the beach???

Heck Yeahhhhh!!!

Laughs, well I told the Betty that we will be visiting the beach everyday, no matter what the weather! My toes have to be sunk in the sand!

Sofar we are two for two!

What I will be doing is writing a post about the everyday adventures and everything we do on the Holidays and share them on a weekly basis! Well This is the official start of the adventures. Well that is if you exclude the trip down, which in itself was an adventure. So it's either or the first or the second day, however you'd like to have it!

Incase you missed the post about the trip down to the seaside, feel free to give it a quick scroll through!

The Journey Down And Through The Outeniqua Pass

This list will grow as I add the previous adventures to it, almost like a series.

Just take a long look at that ocean! It's screaming for me to dive in! But first we had some stuff to attend to before making ourselves and the car full of beach sand! Our plan is to fill the car with enough sand so that we can go create our own beach back home! Lels!

The Merchant!

As I mentioned earlier that today we had some stuff to attend to. Well it wasn't anything too majorly important. We had to go and buy a few Christmas gifts because we ran out of time back home with the packing and planning of the trip down!

So we made our rounds at the Heiderand Mall got a few things for a few special people and well it was after midday by then and the tummy went on a full out grumble wanting to get some attention.

Myself have never eaten at Heiderand but of-course the Betty has and well she had the perfect place in mind!

All of us ordered what we fancied and listened to the couple behind us complain about the length they had to wait for the food. I snirked at that comment, why I don't know. Perhaps I've no love for those who think the sun sets when they sit and rises when they stand, if you catch what I'm trying to say.

I snirk at snirky folks

P.S The Wait Wasn't Long.

I ordered a very simple English breakfast, then at-least I know what to expect.

Well when the order arrived I apparently didn't know what I was getting. It seems I've forgotten what an English breakfast was? I swore the menu stated that I was to get fried tomato along with everything?

It seems my ordered was confused and instead I got some fancy smancy looking breakfast.

It suited me fine though, I'm no picky bastard and love getting pulled out of my comfort zone. I'd rather be pulled out than walk out freely, if that even makes sense at all?

Love being forced to accept change, it's not always easy but I believe it adds to character building in a way!

The Egg Benedict, Not A Mayo Fan But That Was Nice!

As a drink I chose a hazelnut double espresso shot something something ice coffee. Which on all accounts look like only milk poured into a glass.

Believe me looks can be deceiving because that drink was more delicious than simple pale milk!

Kinda craving some now come to think of it!

Hazelnut Double Espresso Shot Ice Coffee, I Think?

It was a fancy little restaurant, it does have a little high class feeling to it, but meh I'm one of those who can't really be bothered by other people. Laughs I like being discussed by folks who place themselves above me 🤣 it makes me feel, how can I say this? Worthy enough for them to waste mindless chatter on which they don't make any gains? Other than wasting their precious little time on this green earth!

I know a little of topic, but meh

Oh I Almost Forgot About Father Christmas

As the time in the shopping centre drew to an end, I felt this sudden urge to be a kiddo again?

Well what does that entale?

Being a kid again, ofcourse!

I told the Betty let's go to Father Christmas and tell him we want a photo! I mean why not? After all it was for the laughs of it!

I swore he must have thought we ain't right in the head! And after all I really doubt myself that we are!

Here's A Photo Of A Photo! We Look, Well Only Half Insane.

I Did Say We'd Be Visiting The Beach Daily, Didn't I?

Expect a beach photo in every post of everyday I make for aslong as I am here! Hive isn't just my new social media but it also serves as my diary. Well I've never had a diary but I sure as hell do have one now!

I swear I think we were the only two fool enough to go to the beach today! I did say the weather was amazing and it was, except for the wind! The wind was awful but went we did!

I am in need of a good colouring session (Meaning a tan) I'm almost as pale as milk, or so people tell me. I'd like to disagree. 😂

The Beach Photo For Today!

The creepy thought of being spied on while taking a tan and reading my book on the beach lingered in my thoughts.

Laughs Laughs

Who am I kidding, as if anyone would want to stare at my pale flesh!

Okay let's get serious for a moment, it must be damn nice waking up in one of those houses making a cup of coffee and sitting on your beach front porch seeing the world getting lit up from the horizon!

What must be more fun is the fact of having a stairway all the way down onto the beach! Talk about fancy!

At-least the Betty had no problems of chilling with me while I was being an old man reading books on the beach. Now if you asked me a few years ago if I would ever sit on the beach reading a book I'd have said no, absolutely not. In fact I'd probably have spit at the whole idea! 🤣😄

But there I was, reading a book with a more than beautifull lady supporting my every decision!

Well it's the Betty!

After spending some time at the beach we went for our usual walk up and down the neighborhood greeting all the random holiday goers who found it to greet us. Otherwise we'd not greet back. Not because we don't have manners but because we are introverts! Laughs who'd have thought.

What I like about this place is the fact that most people are very friendly, except for those we shiny ass folks. But what really gets me is the fact that I can visibly see the ocean from any spot!

And when one moves away from the ocean you are blessed with beautifull mountains that stretches from one side of the horizon to the other!

Simply Amazing!
