So, what does a surfermum do when there aint no swell..?
I lugged the family up the Elands mountain the other day in search of a waterhole that I remembered from my childhood. First of all we did the 641 steps to the bottom of the falls and back up again..!! and then I showed the gang the beautiful swimming hole complete with rope hanging out of a tree. I can't tell you how happy I was that I had found it - it's absolutely gorgeous. I love a good freshwater swimming hole. Its down an unmarked track at the top of the falls. You'd hardly know it was there. Local knowledge huh?! I recommend it if you like mountain climbing (the vehicle, not you...the road's windy and steep).

I also had the fam pretend they were tourists and come on a whale watching cruise. The whales were quiet that day my friend... of course, the day before was breeching heaven! But it was brilliant to see those magnificent creatures up close and personal before they tipped their tales to us and bid us farewell.
So, what have you been up to in the school holidays?
