We lost power last night, sometime after midnight. It was restored at 15h30. Our wireless router has lost functionality, i.e. no power and no blinky lights whatsoever. I had to manually open the security gate today, which made us a bit late for school.

But that is nothing compared to the problems others had. A 5-year-old girl died when a tree fell on her house while she was sleeping. And, 8-m swells are hampering a rescue operation for two missing fishermen. Four bodies have already been found.

I went to Lynedoch, Cape Town, and Bellville today. Tracy worked on her research. Mark did some story writing at school. And, Catherine had a shortened Playball session at day care due to high winds.
