Nexus - Ness is a Grandma!



Vanessa's daughter gave birth last night (11:30am South African Time) to a grandson, 3.8Kg, name to be chosen soon! We're having a celebratory breakfast and helping Ness come to terms with being "Grandma".

Got up to check the anchor bridle at 4am this morning with Laurie, as the tide was running opposite the wind, and witnessed a cool phenomenon. The moonless night was dimly lit by the Milky Way, and the bioluminescence in the water revealed fish movement traces, which a large flock of pelicans were tracking and feasting on in nearly total darkness. We could hear them diving in and saw the bigger splash they made outlined by the bioluminescent glow! How cool is that?
