Some beautiful views.

in Silver Bloggers4 years ago

First up I will show you the iconic Table Mountain on our way to the airport.

I took the first two photos on our drive, as we had to drop a neighbor at the airport for his flight to Nigeria.

He is a roads construction specialist and the country head-hunted him in South Africa to help with some new roads that they are building.
Sadly many of our top quality engineers have emigrated and subsequently our country is suffering from the after effects of losing so many specialists.
But that is an entirely different story and today I just want to show you some sights on our trip.
Come and ride with us.

Here is my line break, as now below I will show you three photos of a golf course on our way back from the airport.

And finally, just a lovely photo of the farm where the water statue photo was taken. We stopped here for coffee.

The airport is about an hour away from our home, depending on the traffic but thankfully we had an uninterrupted trip.
At times, there might be accidents on the road to the airport and then one can sit in a traffic queue for hours. Luckily not this time.
There are so many lovely sights that some day I will travel very slowly and take photos to show you the many different beautiful sights along the way.
For now, I hope that you have enjoyed the ride.

And That's All Friends.

Nigeria is so fond of getting international experts whenever there is a construction work to be done especially road construction. The country is also in disarray with a lot of cases of insecurity. I hope your friend's work will be in a part of the country with decent security.

Wishing him safe trip ✌️. Hehe.

These pictures are adorable. It's my first time hearing of a 'Table Mountain'. I need to look that up. hehe

A wise way to use the best as we see so many fails on the African continent. Our country is also overloaded with insecurity and severe stresses lately, but life goes on.
My friend has a police escort every day to work and back and yes he has arrived safely.

Thank you and yes Table Mountain is world famous.

Fabulous. That's a good one. Anyone that is the best in what they are doing will surely and always get recognition.

Good to know that he will have a security upgrade. Nice. Aside from the weird issue of insecurity, I'm sure he will enjoy his stay in Nigeria.

Well Done Man.

Thanks and totally agreed!

These are beautiful views indeed, my friend, and I love the golf course images most.
I hope your neighbor has a good flight and a good job.

Thank you Hannes and a pity that could not take a a slower drive to take more photos, but we had to get home before the power cut. As you know we are also packing boxes for the move and it was a crazy day.
Tomorrow will not be much better, but you know what I will say here 😉

The neighbor came home for a 3 week holiday, as he has been up there for 3 months already. He has a police escort to work and back every day and at times the army also joins the escort in dangerous areas.
He earns double the amount that he gets here and he has worked in many countries. His wife stays behind here and we often help her with lifts to wherever she needs to go.

Cheers and thanks.

Good morning Zac,

I'm at the end of a 24-hour shift and didn't find any time to reply.

You've got a lot to do in order to move - I have also moved quite a few times, but I have always had an apartment and didn't have a to move complete house.

Sounds as if your neighbour is safe - I would love to be escorted by the police to work 😁 !LOLZ

I'll try to reply to the other replies later, but it's going to be a tough day again, so I'm not sure if I'll have time. Wishing you a lovely day 🌞

Good afternoon Hannes,

You have 24 hour shifts and we have power cuts. I don't know which is worse and I can also only work in gaps. The next power cut arrives from 6pm to 8:30pm.

Not so much to do, as we have a lot of moving experience and this will be our 10th move.
So we only pack up every room, get a truck and we go. This time we have a lot of pots with succulents in and they will have to be moved separately.

Hey, you are the police in case you forgot, but I like your joke 🤣 !LOLZ

Good luck with your day my friend 😉

Cheers and thanks.

I can never take my dog to the park because the ducks keep trying to bite him.
I guess that’s what I get for buying a pure bread dog.

Good morning Zac,

well, I get paid for sleeping, that's the good thing about my shifts 😁 ! LOLZ
But there was not much sleep during the last few nightshifts.

Yep, that sounds as if you really were experienced in moving to new homes 😊

I knew you would get the joke 🤣

Good evening Hannes,

Just back from the 6pm power cut and another one will start at 12pm, luckily by that time I will be practicing your favorite hobby, SLEEPING 🤣 !LOLZ

I know that you get paid for sleeping, but at least then everything runs smoothly. Over here everyone is sleeping regardless of thing running smoothly, or badly 😁
Why no sleep during the last shifts? Somebody steal your mattress 🤣🤣🤣

Hahaha, rest assured that it ill not be our last move my friend. I have my eye on a farm that is surrounded by mountains and I hard that there is 3 big dams on farm. So maybe we can get a cottage there 🤞

Cheers and thanks.

I need to figure out the best treatment for my narcolepsy.
My doctor told me to sleep on it.

Good morning Zac,

I have just come home from a short hike around a little lake. I haven't been there in a while and I have had the whole lake for me alone 😀

There are many reasons like sometimes the phone rings, other colleagues need something, it's noisy or I just can't sleep - then it's hard earned money 😁 !LOLZ

That farm / cottage thing sounds gread, my friend 😃 and I do hope that you'll soon get the chance to live there 🤞
