Little Chelsea and Sunrise in False Bay on 01.01.2012
















































Dear friends walking with dogs,

On this first day of the year, no hangover, no bleary eyed faces, no yawning for us.
On 01.01.2012 we got up at 4.00, drove to the ocean and saw the sunrise over False Bay starting at 5.39. It was Cherry's idea. She is Eva's friend and a professional dog walker.
As I am used to the beaches of Javea, Moraira, Calpe etc...I was completely flabbergasted to see the magnificent, endless, empty beach of False Bay reaching out to Gordon's Bay at the other side. That endless beach was empty except for the many Capetonians who were there, just like us, walking the beach with their dogs. It is possible to walk here with dogs from December till April before 9.00 and after 18.00.
Of course we took some pictures.
A few days ago I walked the streets of Little Chelsea taking pictures of all the old houses. For me it is absolutely amazing that these magnificent homes still exist, are in good condition and have survived the turmoil of centuries in Africa.
The grey house with the black fence and the tree is where we live.

Enjoy the walk.

Blessings for all of you in 2012 from Bruno
