A summer Christmas

We had a fantastic time in South Africa. We spent 4 days in Johannesburg visiting with friends and family. The boys got to meet their great grandmother and experience their first highveld thunderstorm. We drove down to the South Coast of KZN where we spent Christmas in glorious sunshine and warmth. On the drive down we stopped at all the Shell Ultra Cities so that Aiden and Zack could see the ostriches, camels, and other interesting animals. We also made the compulsory stop at Nando's in Harrismith. Except for one day, Aiden and Gavin managed to swim at least once every day. New Year was spent in Cape Town with more friends and family. Aiden had a really good time getting to know all his cousins and Zack just simply enjoyed all the attention he received. Upon our return home it was quite a shock to have the California winter decend on us overnight and with the jetlag, it took us about a week to find our feet again. But it was so worth it! Od did we mention that the SA cricket team beat the Aussies while we were there? Twice!
