Stormy clouds, good friends, cake and some wine

Just some gorgeous beach photos from our walk yesterday afternoon.

We were expecting friends over for supper so we only managed an hour or so on the beach but it was well worth it.

The weather looked so threatening but not a drop of rain fell.

I just love how moody the ocean gets when the weather changes. We had quite a bit of strong winds yesterday which is not usual for us.

Although the water was quite choppy we managed to fit in a quick dip in the ocean.

And then of course there was the sunset. Impressive like always!

A last one before our guests arrived taken from our balcony.

We enjoyed a lovely evening with friends as one of our friends are returning to Australia today for a while so we had a farewell dinner to say goodbye.

Because it's his birthday next week and we won't be seeing him for a bit we did an early celebration and the girl-child and I baked some cakes. She did a lemon merangue and I baked a mayonnaise chocolate cake. My go to when I bake. A lovely time was had by all!

Sometimes just having some friends over lifts the mood. Just enjoying some good company, good food and just in general relaxing a bit. Making new friends is hard wherever you go but we're lucky to have made a few keepers on the island thus far.
