Africa as of late
Africa is amazing, what else can I say? Internet has been hard to come by and when it is around it is very expensive. I am at a hostel now though, with decent prices and free computer use without the internet, thus my ability to post this blog. So lets see...I flew into Cape Town a few weeks ago and since then I have moved on. After about a week of wine tasting, hiking, taking in amazing views, visiting with South African friends and exploring, we finally headed out. After toting our backpacks around Cape Town we rented a car and were off. First we drove to Cape Agulus, the southern most point of Africa, and the most southern place in the world that I have been to. We stayed at a wonderful little backpackers hostel and woke up at 5:30am the next morning to see the sunrise over the Indian Ocean. This was also the place that Andy proposed to me. We had discussed the idea of marriage before hand and even picked out a ring. So it wasn't a huge surprise, but Andy was very sweet about it

The table is all set for Thanksgiving...and I can not wait until it is over!
Today I am joining Between Naps On The Porch for my first Tablescape Thursday. Take a look at this great site for some wonderful tablescapes. I really do enjoy Thanksgiving and I look forward to seeing my family. Though I am anxious for it to be over so I can start decorating for Christmas. Has anyone else noticed that the shops have NO Thanksgiving decorations out? It appears they skipped this holiday and went straight to Christmas. Enjoy my tablescape & and have a HAPPY THANKSGIVING.
