If anyone wants to give me a birthday present I am accepting versions of the best rock and blues that you know. But please no Dire Straights

It might only be 10:36 but it’s my 70th Birthday and no one is going to stop me.

This morning was perfect. Clear blue sky and a warm 24ºC so I decided to go for a ride up the coast to see how it has changed of the last couple of years. My first stop was Umhlanga Rocks. This used to be the end of Durban and the beginning of the North coast. It was famous for the Oysterbox Hotel and one of the few lighthouses on the coast and a few holiday bungalows.

Today it is a very busy town with lots of hotels, highrise buildings and the same lighthouse.

I then continued up the coast to Umhloti which has only changed a bit. I used to go there for Sunday morning breakfast runs so this morning I had a breakfast again.
