Michael's Journey

Howzit people, so sorry I haven't blogged in ages.
I've been having a good time over here, not quite as eventful as I had hoped but enjoyable no the less. I'm missing all you guys and girls in NZ can't wait to see you again.

My mom and I are currently travelling up the east coast of South Africa, we are currently in Jefferys Bay, international surf spot and beach town, and the surf sucks (for those of you who don't know I learned to surf in Cape Town) the swell is ok today (non-existent yesterday) but the onshore is pumping killing all the waves, they are breaking poorlyu so messy it's hard to surf and near impossible to get out there to catch waves, oh well maybe it'll be better at St Mikes where I'm hoping to stop off aswell.

ok got to go now, take care.
Mike

Hey all this post is way out of date but there is a reason for that, I was wanting to suprise a friend in SA and I knew they would check my blog, so in order to maintain secrecy about my location without lying to all of you guys I stopped posting for a while.

Anyway I've arrived in SA, and had a wonderful week and a bit in Pretoria stay with my family there, gettign up to lots of nonsesnse hahaha, I went to Spur, the legendary South African family restaurant, Steers the legendary South African take-out.

I also spent a weekend at the Vaal with my cousins, Paulet, Desiree, Paulet's husband Gavin and their kids, Kevin and William. It was very nice even though the weather was lousy, had some great braais and my afrikaans got a LOT better than it has been in years.

While I was in Pretoria we celebrated my cousin, Bernedine's birthday wich was pretty cool. It was also really nice just to hang out with family I haven't seen in a while.

Anyway I'm in Cape Town now but I'm being unsocialble so CT update coming soon.

Take Care all, hope exams went well for all those writing. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
