_Where Do I Even Begin?_ 



_Well Most Would Say At The Start!_



Okay so this weekend wasn't actually that filled with wonderous adventures! We were quite busy though and at stages during the weekend everything felt a little confused but at the very least by _Sunday_ night we could both relax and prepare for the week ahead! 


_Well, it rained and we wanted to eat some "Ice ice-cream" while enjoying our little stroll down the street! Yeah I know right that sounds so weird on the tongue! It was frozen guava juice so I cant really just say "ice-cream" now can I? I probably can! They were delicious though so we've had that at least!_

## _A Thing Of Nature Is A Thing Of Beauty!_ 




Well none of this was planned out in advance and usually those are the best adventures! Sheesh we should do this way more than often! @misshugo, the next time you ask me to come for a walk and I say that I'm not in the mood or something, just pull me up and let's get going! I miss these walks we take and then end up gossiping about what the people do in their own yards!

_Can you believe that! Laughs it's fun to see how people don't have a taste for things. The one house was painted light grey with yellow walls, that looked absolutely horrific!_ 

_Okay enough of that!_

_I opened my camera over here to take a photo of the flowers for the Betty and well when I saw how good the view looked I snapped a photo of our legs as well! It does look pretty ballin right?_

### _It Really Is A Thing Of Beauty!_

Okay so I took a bunch of photos as we walked through the street and although this might be more fitting for a _Wednesday Walk_ post but I'm not exactly feeling it.

So enjoy nature at its finest! After a light drizzle rain! It makes the scent of the earth so much more enjoyable! SO MUCH MORE!

I'm not going to be spilling out random words for each photo that might not even make sense to anyone. What I can say is that I love green! Absolutely love it and the colour seems to pop when it gets a light rain poured over it! Either that or the greyness of the clouds playing an effect!

I simply took photos of what attracted me at the time, the last one especially attracted me! Check it out! The one with the branches stretching into the sky!

## _Sunday, Well Sunday Was Almost A Complete Disaster!_



_Not with that face smiling at me! Hey @misshugo!_

Okay so why was it almost a failure? Well I over slept so hard I don't even want to mention how late I got up! The sleeping in wasn't the problem, the problem was that we had to go find some formal shoes for _The Betty_ to wear when she goes out of country for a function. 

Here's the thing. When things start going sideways even a little both me and _The Betty_ aren't really up for it anymore. We feel like we've already screwed up before we even screwed up! Not the best perk to have but it does come in handy sometimes. With that said I think both of us together can be unstoppable because we know how to motivate each other! 

_Might be a little bit of a simp but damn I found myself a good lady here! A very good lady!_

_And what do they say? The woman makes the man!_ 



![IMG_20231022_134324.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/technicalside/EopuuSNjhsfdbxt8Pr1E61o2WfyAxFN6YLfiRLc18hJ1J8s5vBdykMNP6jNYbHdU42K.jpg)




https://images.hive.blog/0x0/https://images.hive.blog/DQmfDaSmTz3y8oavngRrr5mmVhrTXheYoEU4qhGUS7pq3xh/Hive.Divider.png


### _No Not Really Adventury Stories!_


Well after our almost epic failure things calmed down a little! Actually a lot! We did what we had to and now the rest of the weekend was just ours and ours alone! We could do whatever! 

_The Betty_ decided to stick me to a nice proper burger, by the way I haven't eaten a restaurant bought burger in years! (Okay probably not years! BUT YEARS!!!) Laughs well it's a miracle that we were able to decide on what to get!_

_Yeah we can never, but that's not the best part of it all!_


_The best part is that almost 8/10 times that we go out to eat something and we've finally managed to pick something, that something we picked would be out of stock._

_Then what? Well then we have to start the search for something to eat all over again!_

_Can you imagine how terrible that is!_




![IMG_20231022_140542-01.jpeg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/technicalside/Eokf1Napkwii8XFy7wTrCAwmVeasHEXNQJbDrHFUieL8cDKrKufiqESAPTVZbVgs1gb.jpeg)

-----------------


_Of-course a coffee has to be enjoyed with it all right!_

Not going to beat around the bush here but the coffee hit the spot more than the burger! Why do I say this? Well since we had to get up and leave as fast as we could to catch the shops before they close on _Sunday_ neither one of us even thought to stop take a five minute break and make us some coffee!

_Needless to say but us South Africans can absolutely not start the day without our coffee! It's more than depressing to say the least!_


![IMG_20231022_134420-01.jpeg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/technicalside/EoChfiWKujPmWmuPxnPvcsbQ2dqd1PwpYBxvRUDTBH3BDVMpAnnDKQZ4zni5JGSfFTy.jpeg)







https://images.hive.blog/0x0/https://images.hive.blog/DQmfDaSmTz3y8oavngRrr5mmVhrTXheYoEU4qhGUS7pq3xh/Hive.Divider.png
## _Then There Was This!_



I'm not going to go in too deeply around this but I might throw in a _Photographylovers_ post out there real soon sharing the rest of these images! 


To think we almost didn't bolt for this sunset! We had to get in the car and drive around the corner, literally not even two hundred meters to catch it! We saw it setting behind the houses across the street and we just had to!



_Probably the most beautifull colours I've ever seen a sunset throwing out!_

Well, at the moment we grind them ourselves because we don't have a coffee machine that grinds it up for us.... But that'll be the first thing I get when movingπŸ˜‚

I guess icecream/ice candy tastes better with the little rain. πŸ˜„ And that smell of the earth after a drizzle, you make it sound so good. Hehe! Well, I believe, everything is a delight when we are with someone who makes us happy. πŸ˜„
