The boyfriend and I decided that we needed a little away time; from life, work and all communication with the outside world. It was wonderful. So we set off to Midmar for the long weekend. It was divine to have time alone without pressures of the world. I would highly recommend it! We camped (without electricity - I mean really, camping with electricity isn't really camping at all is it?). We got to make bon-fires and cook on a tiny little gas thing [I'm a girl, don't ask me what it's called :)]. It was like our own little house.

Day One:
The sunset was so beautiful. And I'm the biggest fan of silhouettes! (Both pics are pretty similar, but one just looked too lonely).





Day Two:
I woke up at some crazy hour of the morning, obviously freezing, and climbed outside for a quick loo visit to find this amazing sky. Ok, so quick moment of honesty: it's been maybe only a handful of times that I've seen the sky look this way as I am never awake so early; and maybe the times I have seen it's beauty this way is due to a very late night. Anyway, I grabbed my camera and quickly framed what I saw. Breathtaking. (A photo clearly doesn't do it justice).



Tyron and I spent some of the day in Howick at a 'tourist trap' of boutique shops. We found such a lovely antique store where I photographed old cameras, furniture and a piano. I've never seen anything like it. A post on it coming soon ~ because it was so wonderful it deserves it's very own piece.

Day Three:
Close to camp there were some trees that had become a little submerged by the dam and died. Kinda sad, but a beautiful sight none the less. And seriously stinky!





As the sun set I snapped some stunner pics of the trees, and more importantly, my man :)






Thanks for reading about my silly little trip, hope you enjoyed it. Peace xo
