Sister Sunday

Sundays don't always have to be sad and gloomy. Turn your Sundays into a day of pure relaxation. Hit the refresh button to warm yourself up to a new week ahead. A week of new possibilities, new ideas and yes, new frustrations. But that is why we have Sunday, to comfort us and remind us that it is ok to just relax and take some time out for ourselves without the constant running around and stress.
This Sunday we were blessed with a beautiful sunshiny day. My sister and I spent the better half of this afternoon at the Botanical Gardens. We arrived with arms full of snacks,cushions and things to read. We left with a gallery full of Instagram worthy pictures and a ready-for-the-weekend-ahead attitude.

PS. A good way to end a Sunday. Movie night. Janine and I are off to the Pavilion, to check out the new movie theatre and watch The Other Woman.

Saturday night life- 1 OAK

Night life in Durban is limited to the places we know, which is unfortunate in my opinion, as we boast the most beautiful weather and natural beauty in the country.
However every now and then a new hang out is opened and we all are eager to check  it out.

1 Oak is situated at the roof top above Roma Revolving Restaurant. The view as you can image is spectacular at night. The interior is chic, yet cosy. Even though the interior is all white with colour LEDs, it does not feel cold. Mini screens are placed on the interior walls, with a chic choice of Ftv.
Music played is all old school RnB and Hip Hop.  There is a small dance floor, if you want to dance you can, and if you don't there's enough seating for you to just chill with your drink.
The cover charge for the night is R100 and the wait staff is very friendly.
The only vice of this place is that it is neither a lounge nor club, so you sit there for hours, yet have nothing to eat because they don't offer any food at all.
Other than that I found 1 Oak extremely cool.
