Under the Sea



Change of scene. Friday morning I woke up bright and early (10:00am), okay well not so early but 10:00am is really early for me in anticipation that I was leaving for Durban @ 12:00pm! Anyways got my stuck together and packed and waited. 12:00am came but didn't leave. Anyways long story short was stuck in Joburg and couldn't leave till something where sorted out. Guess what time that was done? Emm guess... yes! 9:00pm!! Just about 11hrs after I woke up! I was bored out of my head! So I just surfed the net and did some last minute Christmas Shopping at Sandton that afternoon!

Anyways packed to BMX X5 with all the stuff and on the way to Durbs we were at 9:00pm on Friday Night. The roads were quite full, full of trucks and useless drivers and all I had for proper entertainment was MXit and my lovely iPod Video (which I just used to listen to music).


Above: A miserable day at the beach, and how close the beach is from the appartment!

Arrived in Durban 2:30am and still had to drive all the way to our Holiday Appartment in Umdhloti (half way between Umhlanga Rocks and Ballito). Anyways arrived there, unpacked and it was already 3:00am in the morning! The time I went to bed it was 4:30am and it was getting somewhat bright outside. Anyways slept to 4:00pm the next day (hey I love my sleep!)



Did nothing that day besides get into a misunderstanding with a close friend of mine and crossed the road and went to the beach. The tide was high so just walked along the beach listening to some music! Oh how it feels great to be back in Durban, the smell of the sea, the ... emmm, yea that's about the only positive thing. On the downside I had to battle heat, discomfort, humidity, sticky weather and major heat at 3:00am in the MORNING!!! How ridiculous is that! Was so tempted to sleep in the lounge with the Air Conditioning but slept on top on the covers, bare minimum and open windows and a fan- and still I felt hot! I was lukcy enough that the next two days (yesterday and today) was good cloudy cool weather! God how am I going to survive Summer here?!

Anyways yesterday was on the beach till after 8:00pm and was great! Met a few good people and checked out the scene since I'd be here for a while! Anyways was planning to head down to the beach again today and actually got up early and after I organised my self got dressed ate etc I saw that it was raining! Ah crap!!! So I watched something i PVRed, organised my MXit contcts into groups... what a mission! I didnt realise I had so many contacts- delete, delete delete! And now im just listening to some music. Right now what's playing? (Creed- Six Feet From the Edge) which reminds me of my friend who got married on Thursday (Congrats and all the best bud!!). Anyways right now im sitting on this seat thingy looking out at the sea. It's drizzeling yet the sea looks so mighty powerful. Have taken a pic so you can see where I'm sitting! I can actually smell the ocean from here, hear the waves crashing. It's quite beautiful. Took some random pics of the ocean in all it's Greyness... Describes the kind of day I had yesterday!

Oh and Happy Christmas Eve!
