Making music in the sunshine.
It doesn't get much better than this...
Another hellish day in Africa...
We need the support of tourists, keep visiting!
Chilled out listening pleasure.
This guy was so laid-back he was well horizontal!
These shots were taken when we went off to see the whales in Hermanus a couple of weeks ago. As we sat munching lunch at a street side restaurant, these guys struck up - what a pleasure!

matches my imagination.
one day i'll come over for a visit. i'd love to.
First, the song in the headline, sway, it's my favoruite! I love the genre! I wonder what listening to African music live would be like. Post a song clip or link. im sure its awesome! :) Had seen a story on african music. It had a lot of drums in it. Was very different and intriguing. :)
Lovely sunny days! I live by the sea. Its the English Channel.
very cool pictures. I can almost hear the music just from looking at them.
thanks for the visit, absolute vanilla.
all your pictures are just smashing!
i scrolled down to old posts as well.
i loved the ones with the shadows.
lovely effect.
thanks for taking us with you.

ps, that strawberry pie made me hungry...and it is too early for pie!
loved the backdrop for these pics, would love to sit there in silence and read :)
It's so vast and the scenery so different from one place to another, that I'm sure every bit of your imagination would be tantalised, Alaleh! :-)
This music was pure soul, Puresunshine - lively yet cool, rippling yet smooth. Very hard to describe. I wish I'd bought one of their CDs - I might go back yet and do so! African music is very rhythmic and yes, usually has a lot of drums in it :-)
Nothing better than sunny days, Mutts - but not much like the English Channel ;-)
Thanks, StrugglingWriter - yep, you can almost hear the music, can't you ;-)
My pleasures, Chesca - loved the shots of that glass installation!
Glad you liked my pics - thanks! :-)
It is a wonderful place to sit and relax,Rambler though the town, in season, can get really rowdy. For more peace, you should head a little further around the coast, then I think you might even bliss out! :-)
It's starting to get quite chilly here, already. Not much sunshine left before winter. I should spend some time relaxing in the sun before it's gone...
Great shots ... which are crammed with music! :-)
Relaxing in the son in order to warm up for winter sounds good, Rob :-)
Thanks, Shameless - yep, lots of music there - and good stuff :-)
Aha . . at last shots with people in them. Triffic. The grass is soooo green! I love a lazy Sunday, our whales are coming through now, we had a female and baby humpback just through the heads in Sydney last weekend. Fantastic. Your aunt's gonna have a blast!
Music always refreshes the soul,irrespective of language.You have captured its essence beautifully here :)
I dont know about the music.. but from the pics.. it looks just perfect, everyone lazing in the sun. the setting is awesome! the sea in the back.
Looks like it was pure entertainment
Looks fabulous. What a great day, whale watching, musical lunch out in the sunshine. What a view. The colors both happy and soothing.
I'm sorry to admit though, not only am I tad cranky today, but my mind seems to be in the gutter, perhaps you can move the word back, back closer to the word laid. My eyes were scanning the words too slowly, and I had already gotten the wrong impression.
Wow again! *very envious*
Thanks, Baino - ah, so you're getting the whales now, aw, means they're leaving here - I never seem able to get enough of them.
And can we just so NOT talk about my travels with my aunt. Nuf zed!
Thanks, Sameera - it was certainly a great way to spend an afternoon!
It is blessedly beautiful, isn't it, Mystic :-)
That it was indeed and in the very best sense, Jude.
It was a great day, Taffiny - perfect in every way! ;-)
:-) Well, maybe you should come and enjoy it sometime for yourself, Le Laquet! :-)
This looks so cool. Would love to hear AFRICAN marimba!
It's fun to get a glimpse of such a far away sunny day scene. I can almost hear the music.
Thanks for sharing the music and the sunshine, Vanilla! One can really feel them in your photos.
I'd love to visit! Who knows, one day...
Just lovely.
We nod to the southwest and toss you some pecans,
John :)
It was very cool, V - if we go out again I'll see if I can get one of their CDs if they're still there and maybe I can share the music with you :-)
Glad you enjoyed the pics, Colleen!
Ooh, that would be lovely if you could visit, Vesper, I know you'd love the place - despite the insanity, there is so much beauty and vibrancy.
Glad you liked 'em, John - next time can you please toss the pecans in a pie ;-)
