Winter is upon us

Bookshop readingWinter is truly upon Cape Town. It silently crept up on us yesterday evening with some light rain, then greeted us this morning in sheer arrogance with overcast skies, icy cold air and patches of rain throughout the day. Perhaps I'm being a little melodramatic, though it is true, winter really is my least favourite time of the year.

Kerry-Anne and I ventured outdoors this afternoon and popped in at the coffee shop attached to the Wordsworth bookshop at Willowbridge (an outdoor shopping mall). If I had left Kerry-Anne there she would have spent the remainder of the day just like the subject of today's photo... reading and drinking coffee (though in her case it was white hot chocolate).

A truly inviting post. I am happy that you got the winter and we are getting the summer.

I think there can be something comforting about the winter months...darker evenings, close the curtains and light the fire and yes nothing better than drinking hot chocolate and reading a book!!
