This is the view that greeted us this morning when we woke up and went downstairs for coffee and breakfast. (Yes, we did wake up rather late - not surprising though, considering how little sleep we've had since Wednesday.)

We've been listening to the birds in the reserve all day, and it really does feel as though we're on holiday here. I feel more relaxed than I have in a very long time, and I'm looking forward to exploring this part of Cape Town for a change.

By the way, we have an important milestone coming up this week... do come back on Tuesday to see what it is. :)
