I miss you

I miss the old me !

Do you ever feel like everyone else in life is just blowing past you?And leaving you behind in their dust?Or is that just me?

I know life isn't a race it is a journey but I sometimes feel so left behind and sometimes it is just not nice to feel dead last.And I am struggling so to catch up and every time I think ah I am almost there,I look up and see how far ahead everyone got again.

I just miss how it used to feel to wake up and just feel normal and not so lost.I hope the old Candy comes back soon I miss her.

My birthday again

Well Cas and i seem to have made it our new thing to give each others birthday gifts and christmas gifts late.But in a way it is kinda cool.It is like having an extra birthday. Cas and i went to the movies to watch Dilema and then I got my gift to :)

I got some fun goodies-Cas had made a canvas for me,I got a Kaiser Craft item,a Hello kitty Pen and a chocolate from her overseas trip.

 I haven't eaten my chocolate yet,I don't know if I should hehe

 We think alike because I bought her a hello kitty pen for her birthday as well.I unfortunetly forgot it at home when I gave her gift I still need to give it to her.Rather late than never it is the thought that counts.

Road trip 2 Cape Town part 5-The beach also the end of our last day.

 

And that was the end and then for our long trip home.And boy was it a long trip there was so many stop goes on the way home.

Oh I almost forgot one of the funniest parts of the trip.Which happened on the way to Cape Town.Jacky had phoned her friend at work and said that Josh wanted him to hear something and boy did he.Then he let off this massive arm fart.And we couldn't stop laughing.It must have sounded very convincing because Chad asked if that was a real one or an arm fart hehe.He is surprisingly good at it.Chad rated him a 9.5 and said he must do some more practicing hehe.

After that phone call Josh tried to teach us how to arm fart as well as he does and how we must place our mouths and so on.I wasn't very good at it,but I don't think the laughing was helping.Jacky and Oupa had a go at it to.

Here is a clip of some of his arm farts!

Road trip 2 Cape Town part 4-2 Oceans Aquarium

Sunday 20th March 

Our first stop was in Strand at the wait for it WIMPY we had to eat a decent breakfast because yesterday there was an issue with the lack of food at the correct time and well to say the least we were cranky because of it.I would have taken more photo's but I was very busy eating my breakfast.I only caught this one of Tayla taking avery large bite out of her burger.I don't know how she stays so skinny.

Next stop with the help of our GPS was at 2 Oceans Aquarium,When inside we each got our hand stamped with invisable ink that you can only see under a UV light which they had.I asked the lady if I could show Tayla because she didn't understand why nothing was on her hand.I think it is a very good idea that they have there and then you can come back into the Aquarium at a later time in the day again if you would like to.

And one of my favorite parts even from when I had been there before with Ruan had to be the "Nemo" tank.Oh and then also the frog area where I feel like I am on the set of the Honey I shrunk the kids movie.lol!But I think one of my dad's favorite parts must have been the part where a man uses a very fancy microscope to show you very tiny things up on a tv screen.My dad likes that kind of thing and even has a microscope but he said he wished his one was that cool.

The out of water fish

Ah and some pretty sea horses.I love them.

Some large eels

Look how big it is compared to Joshua's hand.

Guys you are meant to be looking at the jelly fish not pulling faces at us on the other side.

Some starfish.

Some very creepy crabs

Tayla you are always hanging on your poor Oupa

Now that is a cubby starfish .It is kinda cute!

this on the other hand not so cute but Very scary.Looked like it was coming straight for me.AHHH!

Dad what is that?I am so glad they were asking Grant the difficult questions and not me.hehe

I love this photo.They looked so cool in the color lights in the tanks but it doesn't come out the same on the camera that is why I tried to video it.

The clips are noisy but I couldn't very well ask everyone there to be quiet and to say the least it was busy.

 We even got to touch some star fish how cool is that?

 then it was froggy time!!!

tyal kissing her frog I hope he turns into a prince for you one day!

the kids enjoyed a little frog puppet show.

 Planet earth's most dangerous predator.Which grant now informed us wasn't him because the flash had hid his face.haha Grant

 Tayla was so busy watching a shark clip on the screen above that she didn't want to look any further.

 That shark is coming for you Tayla

 Ohhh Josh you looked scared.the shark is coming for you.

 That is one pretty big shark

 Then on our way out we had some fun and games back at the "Nemo" tank

 AHHH Hold your breath dad!!!hehe good one

 oooh I'm under the sea

then it was off to the gift shop where the kids bought some badges saying they were at the aquarium and then we were off to our next place,first the seals in the harbour and then Canal Walk Mall YEAH!!!

Ahh the mall.We didn't stay long I wish we did but the rest were tired and the kids wanted to go to the beach.But I did get a handful of little goodies here :)
