Franschoek, South Africa at sunset.

Experimenting with a photo of the day thing, god knows I have too many photos I've never shared and not so much to say.

These birds look like we used to draw them in school (or last week).

Taken at the Port of Saldanha, South Africa.

Over-water villas at Cinnamon Dhonveli, Maldives, where we spent a wonderful week for our honeymoon in the first villa, with sea and sunrise views.
