Easter Break

So we went to Diani for the Easter weekend with good friends of ours, Mike and Sabine and their 2 kids. Diani is just south of Mombasa. It was our first time heading in that direction. We flew there which was great as the drive can be a real drag - there is a ferry to cross at Mombasa which I think on average takes like 3 hours to use! Good ol Africa.
Mahindi endured her first flight too, no problem - we were way more stressed about it than she was. She is such a cool dog - just so relaxed all the time! And she had an awesome beach holiday yet again. In the pool 5000 times a day and she had another puppy to play with for the 4 days. She has been sleeping ever since!
Mike and Sabine have an awesome house there, right on the beach on the quiet side of Diani. And RIGHT NEXT door to a Kite surfing center which Benedikt made a beeline for and immediately booked himself on a course. I was very jealous...I wanna learn to kite surf too! Benedikt has promised to look after Cecil when we go to the beach in December or Jan and let me do the course then... so lets see if that works out :-)

I had such a super duper weekend. Just totally doing NOTHING. Being pregnant means I feel zero guilt about not going for a run or not being active like I used to be! The most movement I made was swimming away from Mahindi in the pool. Benedikt and Mike went cycling every morning for a couple of hours. I would sleep in and then have an hour long massage followed by a dip in the pool and a long yummy breakfast. Bliss!

One of Benedikt's school friends (and ex girlfriend!) happened to be staying about 500m up the beach from us which was a big coincidink. So we met up with her and her boyfriend one afternoon which was cool.

On Easter Sunday we had 2 other families around for the day. There were 12 adults and 6 kids so it was a hectic day! And I was the easter bunny!
