A bumble bee right in the middle of the photo - you have to look closely!
I was holding an inquisitive Missy away with one hand and shooing an excited Skabenga on the other side (sorry it's so indistinct but it is there, I promise)
Yesterday morning I drove up to my big ten-sleeper accommodation which is situated halfway up the mountain. I went to place tea, coffee, sugar and milk in the kitchen. Then I added new loo rolls which I end with a square point and a smiley face sticker to keep it there! I also roll the towels up on the end of the beds and add a small cake of toilet soap. In the bathrooms I add a soap to the showers and on the wash hand basin. I had a group of five Zulu ladies coming to the Berg on a ladies weekend and wanted to make sure there were all the creature comforts they would need.
Afterwards I went outside to check on the pool ...
Can you imagine feeling stressed or overworked under these circumstances

The house bathed in early morning sunlight
I can't get enough of the mountains
I'm sharing my post on Saturday Critters with Eileen here
HAPPY SATURDAY TO YOU ALL!
Hello, I am glad your kitty and Skabenga left the bee alone. I have had a few dogs that would try to catch bees in their mouths. I am sure it hurts if they are stung. The accommodation and the views are fabulous, I would enjoy staying there. The mountain scenes are gorgeous. I am always happy to see your post. Thanks so much for linking up and sharing your post. Happy Saturday, enjoy your weekend. PS, I appreciate your visit and comment on my blog.
ReplyDeleteI could wake up to that view every day.
ReplyDeleteLove your home & mountain scene (is that a view from a window?)
ReplyDeletethat last shot is awesome, I hope the ladies have a wonderful time and enjoy those views together. it has been about 60 years since I last saw a mountain. I do see the buzzy bee in the first photo...

ReplyDeleteI saw the bee, good capture with the assistance of the curious crew, Skabenga and Missy. The view from the place is absolutely gorgeous. I can see why you love it. Have a nice weekend, Jo.
ReplyDeleteIt's so beautiful there Jo - and I'm assuming they are the Drakensberg Mountains which I remember well from my two visits to S. Africa - but sadly I didn't get this close.
ReplyDeleteIs the pool heated? Do you get animals visiting for a swim?

Oh my gosh Jo, your holiday accommodation couldn't be in a lovelier spot. If I wasn't so terrified of flying I'd be there in a shot. I bet the ladies had a brilliant weekend ✨
