tea with ZA

so rich and i headed off to south africa. we had two birthdays (mom & brother) two weddings (brother & friends) & a whole lot of family time. it was just wonderful being around the familiar faces of love and memories. we kept busy the whole 6 weeks we were there. both sides of the families had a chance to all be together again after around 2 years of being apart. we also had loads of time with friends and ate all our favorite za foods. rich tattooed and i took photos. here are some film shots of our time spent in the land of sharks and open spaces.

ZA folkland

south africa has a rich land filled with majestic animal life and culture. a culture of not only different races but that of different characters. either way its eye catching and a part of our heritage. which i'm proud to be apart of.

my kinda mammals

here are some of the south african mammals in my life. my gorgeous cat teloos my dads ball obsessed, wave catching lump of mussel pup hammer and two of a few awesome characters i met cruising around.

our last days of summer

as our holiday drew to an end we manage to squeeze in the most amazing sunrise and family time at the beach. this post ends with a photo of rich (richkraft) and ross skimming stones on the water at trio beach back in hong kong.

boys of a feather flock together

T8 warning stroll. sha kok mei north is where we're headed. sethie pretty much spoke to me the whole way from the back of his dads bicycle... yes, he is chatting to me in this photo... 

peace like a river

the first time a saw one of these she floated by cackling crazily on a blow up lie-low... this time i was graced by a bright & peaceful floatable human...

so you think you can dance?

went to stanley in hong kong with the family a few weeks back and boy were there loads of dogs and  not just normal dogs... 

dancing dogs!

smoked food

walked past a chef taking a smoke break. he was kind enough to let me take his picture. 

introducing the hapi kapi

my dog kapi is just a delight. here are three images of him having a happy time early morning on my bed.

happy dogs make a happy city

more dogs to bring delight to your eyes and hearts as they do to mine. shoes? yes, shoes for dogs. hong kong doesn't really have any houses with gardens for their dogs, so walking them around the city is how they get their exercise thats needed. i think it's great for the dogs and owners, the city is super dirty, so this is their way of keeping their in-house dogs paws super clean. its funny seeing them in shoes. the white dog was absolutely beautiful and very friendly not sure what breed the dog was (the owner did try tell us, but i had no clue as to what her was saying, just smiled and said "oh ja?... wow!") looked like a white wolf cross a white shiba, if there's such a thing!
