Come and see the mountains.

We don't have a TV, so friends invited us to a restaurant to watch a rugby game.

I was way more interested in the view of the mountains from the restaurant.

The Springbok rugby team from South Africa was playing the All Black rugby team from New Zealand and the place was crowded with rugby fans. Very uncomfortable amid the noise so I spent most of the time outside on a balcony to get some mountain shots.
Although I could not get a wide view of the mountain range, I took some lovely close up shots.
Come and see.

Okay I also took a few shots of the game to show the rugby lovers.

I know that South Africa won the game by something to something, but I will see the final score somewhere today, as we had to leave before the game was over.

The game was played in the late afternoon and I placed the mountain photos in the order of the time that I took them. Ever so gradually getting darker with the sunset colors appearing. I used to play rugby at school and for a short while after I left school, I also participated in the athletic events and boxed for 12 years, but as I started what they call the maturing process in age, other interests became more dominant.
So today nature plays a much more dominant role in my life and I simply cannot get enough of it.

The beauty and serenity of nature is a song that strokes my soul and the sea nearby has a calming song of it's own. It has so much to teach us and I know that I will never learn all of it's secrets, but whatever I learn is a certain blessing, as it affects my life in calming measures.
We all have only this one life and the most important lesson in my own life is that nature teaches me to lead it calmly and kindly in all that I do and say.
So there you are and I hope that you have enjoyed the photos.

And That's All Friends.

Oh yeah rugby is a great game, but I am not a fan of crowds.
Thank you for the compliment!

Thank you for sharing photos of those beautiful mountains. Sometimes, when I feel very happy and I think that I will not have time to enjoy all the good things that God created, I remember the gift of eternal life that Jesus gave us when he died for our sins and I think that this way we will have time to surplus

Unfortunately, Ecency doesn't show me the images, so I can only rely on my imagination, but I'll return later and when then I can see the photos, I'll leave another comment, telling you if my imagination of lovely mountain scenes was right or wrong 😊

Hope you two guys are enjoying a wonderful Sunday, Zac 😊🌞

Maybe you like a !PIZZA fresh from the Oven 😋

Ah yes, I also struggled on ecency, but then I looked into discord and saw that they were working on the problem It is fixed now.
Although I don't think that the mountains are in your grand scale as I could only get close ups from a balcony 😪

Sunday was relaxed and done now and I wish for you to have a great new week my friend 😉

Cheers and thanks.

Yep, I have just had a look at it and I love the views you have had ... the ones towards the mountains, of course 😊 and it's much better anyway to watch the landscape from a balcony than to watch a couple of grown up men fighting for a ball - give them all a ball and they don't need to fight anymore, they can be friends 😂 !LOLZ

We have had a rainy day and I'm still at work, but I hope later I'll be able to find some paid sleep 😎
Wishing you also a great new week, my friend 🌞

The good thing is that my friends know me and they don't mind if I go out with my camera. I don't even have to make excuses like going to the toilet anymore. I like your brilliant idea of giving them all a ball as then there will be peace 😁 !LOLZ

So I take it that you worked night shift again, or should we call it night snooz again 🤣

Thank you and wishing you the same my friend. Long weekend here as tomorrow is Women's Day.

Cheers and thanks.

These are good friends, others would complain.

Yep, but as said in other replies, the nightshifts are really tiring, although I can sleep. And I think I also said that it is hard earned money because it's hard to fall asleep with between the running computers and monitors 🤣 !LOLZ

Cool, Woman's Day isn't a holiday here, but next Monday is a holiday and I don't have to work 😀

I might be mostly offline in the next days, or only on the phone, because we are visiting our daughter on Thursday and I want to do a hike at the weekend.

Have a !PIZZA from me, served with !LUV
