An African sky.

Some Friday late afternoon shots to show you the beauty today.

Fresh photos form my camera taken from here at home.

We have 3 power cuts today, 4am, 2pm and 10pm tonight and let me tell you that it is difficult to work in between, but we simply endure and carry on.
I noticed the new strange clouds coming over and the weatherman reckons that tons of rain is going to fall further inland. So in the future when these skies appear, I will know what to expect.
Come and let me show you.

This below was a look up the road and the clouds fell off the mountain top.

Weird clouds in the sky.

A gorgeous show below.

What can I say? I was stunned when I saw the photos after I had downloaded them on to the PC.

An unexpected windfall to witness this afternoon event in the sky. Some birds played the game, by coming over and I have a bag full of more photos that I took. To the naked eye all of the scenes looked even better, but my Canon did the job fairly well, methinks:)
We are not only blessed with abundant nature, as the skies are also so worthwhile to keep an eye on.
I am sure that you will agree that this is not too bad.

And That's All Friends.

They reckon that the power cuts will last another 5 to 8 years.
Glad that you liked the sunset shots.

It is sad that our life is now governed by when we have power to do thing like have food and coffee/tea. I am not enjoying this at all as it has kind of started to wear a little thin and don't have patience for stupidity and incompetence.

Agreed and by now you know that it was escalated to Level 5. Ted Blom reckons it's a lie and that they are in fact now at Level 7 or 8. Kusile is a brand new powerstation and it only shows you the effects that corruption can deliver. So another 5-8 years of this stuff awaits.
And to beat it all they want to increase the electricity prices by 32% next year.

Good evening Hannes,

We are in a spot of trouble over here as they have lifted our power cuts to level 6 now.
So we were shut off at 10am this morning, until 2.30pm this afternoon. Another shut off awaits at 8pm, a couple of minutes from now.
Such is life!

Cheers and thanks.

Good evening Hannes,

Maybe I will not get a reply to all of your messages now, as we have a scheduled power cut at 8pm.

It is always the if... that counts. If they do this, if they do that, if they think logically, if they didn't let all of the specialist tradesmen go, so if,if,if my friend.

Been going on for centuries and the poor will always be with us.

Cheers and thanks.

Good evening Zac,

it's always the if, but we or they never learn from it.

I don't have much time anyway because I am quite tired 😴
I followed your advice and have gone into the mountains. At the moment I am in my sleeping bag in the van and hope I will not freeze during the night because a cold wind is blowing outside and there's even some snow. I am at 2,320 meters altitude on a parking lot at the "3 Zinnen" - "Tre Cime di Lavaredo". The weather was cold but nice today, but the cloudless sky was boring.

If the weather is nice tomorrow morning I will go on a hike around the 3 Zinnen - wishing you a great day tomorrow, my friend 🌞

Good evening Hannes,

Wow~! Both Marian and I was stunned by this photo. Yes, it must be cold, but the photo shows that there is also still a bit of heat around. I hope that you remembered to twitter the photo.
We will go off again at 10pm and everything seems to be falling apart over here. Our gate motor packed up and is now repaired and running again, but it is going to cost us a bomb.
The batteries need 12 hours to charge and the power cuts disturbs the charging time, so eventually the battery and the controls resign.

Talking about batteries, I lost one of my camera batteries yesterday and now they have no replacement stock.

I hope that the weather was nice and that you had a great hike 😊

Cheers and thanks.

Good evening Zac,

oh, thanks so much, my friends from the south 🤗
It's just a smartphone image and apart from the mountains there's nothing interesting to see. I said in my other reply that I'll go there again when the alpine flowers are blooming because in the foreground they might add nicely to a photo.
I didn't post it on Twitter but I have posted another image from that evening just a few minutes ago.

The weather was even too nice because there were almost no clouds again, but it was very windy and cold. Until the tourists arrived it was a lovely and quiet hike, but then you could hear them all around and I was glad that I was back at the car after about 4 hours hiking around these peaks.

I hope that the costs for the repair will not be too high. Can't you just switch the charging off while the power cuts last, so that the power cuts don't mean any harm to the batteries and the controls?
And I hope that you'll find another spare camera battery - isn't there a (online) market for used things like Ebay or so?

I'm wishing you all the best with another image from the Dolomites 😀

Good evening Hannes.

We have right now been switched on again and I have to catch up on a mountain of work.
Talking about mountains, this photo of yours is supreme and I so wish that I was there with you.
Was it this one that you twittered? It sure is lovely.

Good of you to get away before the tourist rush, as noisy crowds are never a pleasant experience and I hope that the van is working out well for you, as 4 hours of hiking should make you a bit tired.
I can't even do one kilometer anymore, but the good news is that the medical has given the go ahead for the operation on my legs. So 2 stents will be placed in each leg.
Of course there will be a co-payment, but at least we don't have to pay the full cost.

The doctor will also also not put me under, as he will do it under a local anesthetic with will make the bottom half of my body lame. So I will be awake during the operation, which is great as it means that I can go home sooner. The only painful thing is that injection that they give in the lower spine.

No, I can't switch the charging off, as it will be of no use, the batteries need a minimum of 12 hours to complete a charge and if the period is switched off continuously, then the battery just packs its bag and it leaves to go to battery heaven 😉

No time yet to search for an online battery, but soon.

Cheers and thanks.

Good day Zac,

sorry for being late again, but in the past few days I have either been working on the van or I was on the road.

Talking about mountains, I am sure that a mountain of work is waiting on my office desk 😂 !LOLZ

Thanks so much that you like the photos, my friend, because I have taken so many there but only a few were good or sharp. It was so windy up there that the camera wasn't sturdy enough on the tripod, but I am glad that a few have been good enough :)

That sounds great, Zac, then you can go on a hike with me soon ... cool 😀
Even if it's painful, when the result lets you walk again easier it's worth the pain.

In that case I hope that the power cuts don't do the same with the batteries and send them to battery heaven.

Being out without a spare battery has caused me some troubles in the past when I thought I don't need to take one with me and then had to return home without the photos I could have taken. So I do hope you'll get a new battery soon.

I'm home today, but mostly offline, and tomorrow I'll drive my daughter to Lower Austria and then I think I'll go on my next trip north or west ... or I don't know yet 😉

Wishing you two guys a wonderful weekend 🤗🌞

Good evening Hannes,

no need for apologies as you have to do what you do and I hope that your co-worker would have stepped up to the plate to at least do a quarter of the mountain of work for you 🤞 !LOLZ

Yes, I agree as the pain will only be temporary and let's hope that the result will be good 😉

Sadly the power cuts cause many damages here, as the pumps that feed us with fresh water are also all packing up. They don't like the stop start of the power cuts. They might institute water rationing.

No one has any stocks of the batteries and not even online 😰

Sounds like some more adventures are waiting for you and just take care my friend 🙏

Thank you and we wish the same to you guys 😊

Cheers and thanks.

Good morning Zac,

these power cuts are really bad and I do wish you all the best that nothing gets damaged badly or that they even ration the water.

I have spent the night on a parking lot in the Wachau area near the Danube River and after my replies I will leave to the river for breakfast there. It was a rainy night but I have slept very well 😃
Later I want to go further north and return tomorrow to give my daughter a lift back home because she needs to do some things there.

Wishing you a great start into a hopefully wonderful new week, my friend 🌞🤗

Hi Hannes, already greeted earlier. We had our last of the 3 daily power cuts today at 4pm.
So we can only work off and on every day and of course I can take photos during the power cuts 👍
Something like this.

It sounds like you are really getting on with the van and yes, it is a complete change from the old bike trips. Now things can only continue to get better and I hope that you had a nice breakfast 😊

I also hope that you got some great photos on your travels and yes, you said that you have to take your daughter back to her place. Take care my friend 🙏

So it seems that your week started great and thank you for wishing me a good one.
When do you have to be back at work? Friday?

Cheers and thanks.

Hi Zac,

I finally managed to get online, or better said to find the mood to get online. It's still raining here and now, almost at the end of my holidays I can say that the only good days have been the first few days, but even these haven't been good for photography because of no clouds. The other days have been rainy or at least dark and cloudy.

Anyway, at least you have got great weather for photography as I can see in your cool photo, my friend, that's the positive side about your power cuts.

Tomorrow is my last free day and after the weekend I'll go back to work. I bet the weather will change till then 😂 !LOLZ

Hope you're having a good time, my friend 🌞

Hi Hannes,

I don't blame you as you are on holiday, but I am so sad that you did not have great weather.
Dark and cloudy is no good unless you can get something close up like this 😊

The weather is also a bit upside down here as early morning the African sun is so sharp. that I battle to great shots of the buzzards when they fly in the sun and this afternoon we were just as cloudy as you are there. Only difference is that there is no rain 😉

Always works like that doesn't it. The moment that you step into the office, the sun steps out from behind the mountains 🤣 !LOLZ

Having a good time during the power cuts, as then I get out with the camera 🤣
Sad that the weather prevents you to do the same 😰

Cheers and thanks.

another rainy day and night have gone by and at the moment I am having a coffee in the van at the lake near home. Later I want to drive around (once again 🤣 !LOLZ ) and hopefully find something to photograph, otherwise I go home and wait for Monday ... back to the office 😭

I hope you will have a great weekend - good weather and less power cuts ... or better more that you can get out more 😉

Good evening Hannes,

I have to hurry as we are off again for the third time today at 8pm.

Having coffee in the van sounds great and I hope that you have the camera on, as often something can come and sit, or fly at any moment. Then you can spill the coffee on your lap as you drop the cup to grab your camera 🤣 !LOLZ

Thank you and getting out more will do me fine. Hope that your weekend will also be good my friend.

Cheers and thanks.

Back to the office sounds dreary indeed, but remember only this, your time is getting shorter day by day and soon you can sit in the van all day and every day 😉

Unfortunately, my prison has even become harder and it's now more complicated to get back from holidays , because I have to look if my colleague has done good work or not, and not all has been good, so I have a lot of additional work to do.

Today I am having nightshift as well as on Sunday, but I am already planning my next holidays 😁 !LOLZ

Wishing you a great time, my friend, and hopefully my time will be somehow "normal" again soon 🌞

Good evening Hannes,

Thank you for the compliment my friend and lately things are not easy, as I only started now with all of the replies after the power cut😰

Like I said before, holidays always amount to mountains of work when one returns, but luckily you are a mountain goat, not any mountain goat, but a special Austrian mountain goat that knows how to climb mountains 😁 !LOLZ

There you go, planning holidays that will result in more mountains of tears when you return 😰

Take your time and getting things right is more important my friend,
I hope to still be here for a long time 🙏

Take care and don't push too hard at work 😊

Cheers and thanks.

Good morning Zac,

nightshift is over and I need a little break, so I reply quickly 😁

The 26th of October is our national holiday and since it's a Wednesday I want to take the other 4 days off and make a trip with the van somewhere ... and I do know that the mountain of work will only grow 😭

To be honest, if there's a road up to the mountain I would prefer to drive instead of climbing 😂 !LOLZ

You take care too, my friend, wishing you a great day 🌞

Good evening Hannes,

Okay I understand and I will read this quickly, so as not to keep you up 🤣

Well then you just have to make sure that your co-worker will be 100% sure of what he has to do in your absence before the 26th of October. I am sure that you can travel further away over 4 days to some countries where you have not been yet 😉
The 12th of October my operation will be done and I am most definitely not the type that would be willing to stay in bed for a few weeks. 🙏

Hahaha, the sad thing is that there are no roads up the mountain of work, and you have to find solutions on your feet. And only you can do it 🤣🤣🤣 !LOLZ

Hope that your day was good :)

Good evening Hannes,

Oh yes, that's what I meant and the more time that you spend teaching him now, the less time you will need to correct his mistakes after your holidays, So the mountain will become a mole hill. 😉

Thank you, but I really doubt that I would be jumping around ever again my friend. It will certainly bring some relief, but my lower spine has not been fused yet (too expensive) and me left knee has also not been replaced yet (also too expensive).
But note that I am not complaining, as I have totally gotten used to the daily pain after all of the years.
You know what I will say here 🤣 LOLZ

Thank you and I hope that your Friday was also good.
My great weekend wish for you and yours 😊

Yep, I know what you will say here, but I still do hope that the operation will at least ease some of your pain 🙏

Wishing you a great start into a wonderful week, my friend 😊 I know you will spend most time in bed, so I hope you'll have an awesome day today and a relaxing time in bed after the surgery.

Good evening Hannes,

to me nightshift was a very tiring affair, as I told you before that I cannot sleep during daylight. My body simply refused to sleep, even if we darkened the room. That's why the 5 years that I had to work nightshift was a nightmare. So I feel for you 😰

So right, but the wise ones find easier ways to conquer the mountain 😁 !LOLZ

That is what we are praying for and the doctor says that I will not have the cramps anymore. But we will see afterwards, as if the stents don't work, then they will fuse the two damaged vertebrates in my lower back 😉

What? Spend time in bed? Me? I will be up on Thursday my friend, mark my words. Thank you for the nice wishes and I hope that your week, apart from the night shift will also be good 👍

Cheers and thanks.

Good evening Hannes,

We have a free night, as no power cuts tonight, so I am climbing the mountain of work 😉

Hahaha, at first the doctor said that I will be kept in the ICU (Intensive Care Unit) overnight and if I am better the next afternoon then I may go home.
So I humbly suggested that we do the operation first thing in the morning, as then I will have time to recover during the day and maybe I could go home in the same afternoon. Sounded very reasonable to me as there are many sick people that need beds and they can have my one. He said that we should wait and see how it goes, so I hope that I will recover quickly 🤣 LOLZ

Thank you kindly for the wishes and the prayers 🙏

Cheers and thanks.

So you also have your mountains of work? But of course, I know yours are wider and higher than mine and I shouldn't moan about mine because if I had yours I probably wouldn't have the time to moan 😅

LOL, such a suggestion can only come from you 🤣 but the reasons are very understandable 👍

Wishing you all the best and please let me know how it went as soon as you can 😃

Hi Hannes, already greeted.

So the best thing that you like about your work depends on the beds in the offices 🤣 !LOLZ

Nah, my co-worker is simply better than yours and a mountain shared is a mountain halved, so my mountain is smaller than yours 😉

Always understandable methinks 😜

I will and thank you. I also scheduled a post for tomorrow, as I will not be around, but maybe I will be back on Thursday, depends on the pain. The problem is that the probe is inserted in the groin and from there into the arteries. So excessive movement after the operation could cause one of the arteries to open and then there could be big trouble.
You know what I will say here 😉

Cheers and thanks.

Good afternoon Hannes,

I am walking around here now like an old ancient tortoise with no speed and it's not a pleasant experience my friend. The doctor reckons that 2 weeks will be the recovery period, but I am determined to cut that by many days. Thing is that I have to go about very gently and not overdo things, but I am not one to simply stay in bed.

So I am up and in the study now to catch up on all of the replies and I take slow short walks inside the house every 20 minutes. It feels like my stomach was ripped out, but I know that it will get better.
The worry is my legs and I am happy to report that I have not had a cramp in them yet. So maybe they are now fixed 😂

You and Marian will drive me crazy as you want me to take my time and she won't even let me tie my own shoe laces, so now I feel like a little boy again 🤣!LOLZ (A naughty little boy)!

Cheers and thanks.

Good morning Zac,

I'm somewhere in Slovenia waiting for the sun to rise and hoping that there are some Autumn colours and some fog. I got up too early and so I have to wait about an hour. But that way I have some time to reply because yesterday I went to bed quite early 😀

So you're an old tortoise now? You know they can live hundreds of years? Be prepared that you will still be around when my not born grand kids will be old 😂 !LOLZ

Another day has come and I am sure that you feel much better today than you did yesterday. Just listen to your friends and overall listen to Marian and be patient for a few more days to soon have fun again getting out in nature and take pictures 😊

Wow! You certainly get to places my friend and I really hope that you got some lovely shots 😊

I read this to Marian and we both had a good laugh. I will live as long as your non born grandkids are old??? Where do you get these ideas from? 🤣🤣🤣

Yes, I have lots of pains and don't feel too well after this morning, as I went out into nature. My doctor will faint if he hears this, but for me life goes on and I hate sitting around. Difficult to walk, but that doesn't stop me. I am full of blue marks from the instruments and there's still some swelling, but it looks better than yesterday.

Now I don't know why everyone here is complaining, as like I said, for me life goes on and I couldn't pass up the chance that I was given this morning as Mother nature was urgently calling me.
Look at this.

I think that you would understand what I am on about 🤣 !LOLZ

yesterday morning, it started to rain before the sun rose, so I moved on to a waterfall in Italy and hope that at least one of the images I took there is good.

Haha, I forgot the word "yet" - you will still be around when my not yet born grand kids will be old 😂 !LOLZ

The weather here is also great at the moment and in a few minutes I'll make a trip to some of our border offices which mostly are on mountain passes. I don't have my camera with me because we'll be in a rush to get back till the evening, but maybe I'll take some photos with my phone.

Good evening Hannes,

Sad that you are so busy, as I and I am sure many others enjoy your posts. Twitter is a different animal as if one is not engaged in there daily, then the votes will drop. I see that in my own posts on Twitter, as I also post in there occasionally 😉

Maybe not so patient my friend, as today I tried a 1 kilometer walk and now I am suffering. The doctor said to wait for 2 weeks, but who wants to wait so long ? 🤣 !LOLZ

That trip sounds exciting and maybe you will spot some places for a future visit with the van and the camera. I just hope that Mother nature doesn't surprise you with a beautiful shot, because she knows that you will not have your camera 🤣😜🤣

I was feeling much better before I started today's walk, but by tomorrow I will be on the go again.
Hope that your week will not get too busy 🤞

Cheers and thanks.

Good morning Zac,

I think after my next holidays I will decide whether to carry on posting or not. Twitter can be very exhausting 😅

It was a long and tiring day yesterday although I haven't done much more than playing the passenger and showing my colleague the places 😄

We have had beautiful weather and Mother Nature has shown me some beautiful views because most of these borders are on mountain passes, but I didn't take any photos.

Now I am on my way to work and to my last nightshift for this month.

Take care, my friend, 1 km is quite a distance of a walk after you have had such a surgery. I don't want you to have more pain than before.
Wishing you an awesome day anyway 🌞

Good evening Hannes,

I think that we should move the replies to a fresher post, as by now our messages on this post, "An African Sky", must be longer than my arm 🤣 !LOLZ

So you say that you will decide if you should continue with posting. I hope that if you decide not to, that it will only be on Twitter and that you will continue to post on Hive? 😉

Ah, so you took your colleague around to see the places. That makes sense to me, as he will have a better understanding about his work.

Yes, I told you that Mother nature will show you places. Nothing prevents you from visiting those places in the future with your camera 😊

Glad to see that this is your last night shift for the month. Maybe things will return to normal for the rest of the month and that you will have the weekends off 👍👌

Thank you and you are so right, as I had some strenuous times this morning with the legs, but we went out and I did some very slow walking that gradually stretched the leg muscles again. Now it's almost fine and tomorrow it will be better. I was stupid to take a far walk, but such is life 🤣😁😜

Cheers and thanks.

Good morning Zac,

not a bad idea - I hope I don't forget 😁

Of course, I meant on Twitter and other social networks. I have joined Vero recently too and it's all to much - being online so much time just for some likes ...

Yep, on Monday we have done half of our southern border to Italy and Slovenia in the west and if there's enough time we'll do another trip to the south eastern border which is to Slovenia only.

I'll even be on holidays for the next two weeks because I need to consume my vacation days from 2020 before they expire. As usual I haven't made any plans yet, but I'll certainly visit the Dolomites again if the weather is right.

Right, such is life ... and such is Zac 🤣 !LOLZ

So, now I'm waiting for my colleagues to arrive for their 24-hour shift so that I can go to my office to do yesterday's and today's work 😅

As always, my friend, take care and take it easy and have a wonderful day 😊🌞

I completely forgot to send you a photo of our today's sunset that has just happened - it should bring you luck for the operation 😊


Cheers and !BEER

That photo lifted my spirits as it is fabulous.

Thank you my friend!

Good evening Hannes,

There is a saying "You've got an eye" and no matter if a phone or a camera, it's the eye that sees the shot. The rest happens automatically and the result is beautiful 😊
My pleasure 👍

Cheers and thanks.
