New experiences

Hello everyone!! How's your day been?

My mission for today is pictured in the photo... 🚲... I have decided that whilst we are in Cape Town I want a bicycle for getting around. 🙃 I posted on some local groups and this is what I ended up with. A real retro ladies bike... 😂 No gears, backpedal brakes and bright pink. The girl-child's first reaction was that we need to spray paint it another color.. 😂 😂 I'm down with the pink.. Who cares in any case? 🤔.. 😂 Now i only need a basket, proper bicycle lock and some green stuff to prevent the tires from going down as there's a heck of a lot of thorns around these areas.

I've perhaps mistakenly got a bit of a romanticized view of cycling to the shop and beach instead of walking or bussing. I remember doing that yonks ago when I was in the Netherlands. I do reckon if I'm gonna do it anywhere in Cape Town, Melkbosstrand is perfect!

Hubby's still stuck in Mauritius. Redtape and more Redtape and even more Redtape means that they are not yet able to depart. We keep our fingers crossed for this ordeal to pass so they can get underway! In the meantime they're keeping busy preparing for the trip.

Furthermore we're all good. The weather was fantastic today so I managed my 10000 steps once more. 🙃 Hopefully the cycling will be good for some weight-loss if nothing else. 😉

I hope you've had a great day today. Enjoy the rest of your evening and see you guys tomorrow! ❤️
