The Colour Purple...


Jacaranda's in Jozi...Just make the streets a little more colourful. And so even though Pretoria may be called "The Jacaranda City"...I am seeing more and more blossoming every year on our side of Gauteng. You've gotta love them while they're around because in a few short months they'll be gone...thats my plan!

Highveld Thunderstorms

The gentle pitter patter of rain is soothing and lovely to fall asleep too but thunderstorms are a leap up the ladder for me. The sound of all that electrical power crackling in the clouds and unexpected streaks of light appearing at random in a dark sky; it makes me want to cuddle up to whatever is closest...bed is best!:) and you know what...you just don't get them like you do in Joburg...add a bit of hail and you've got a perfect mix of weather for a highveld summer! High on my list of things to luv in Jozi!
