Yummy baked goods at Just Knead More

The Port Elizabeth Geocachers have a WhatsApp group where we chat about caching as well as anything and everything else. One day George C12 mentioned a bakery and posted a picture of some yummy goodies he bought. A few days later he did it again and people got curious. Where was this place George C12 … Continue reading Yummy baked goods at Just Knead More →

Road sign Geocaching

A Geocacher looks at each and every thing they pass along the way as a potential hiding place for a cache (as long as it isn't closer than 161 meters from the next cache). Road signs are no different and this week I went Geocaching with Drama Princess and this was exactly where she found … Continue reading Road sign Geocaching →

Boardwalk fountains video

We kick off 2016 with the first Video Friday post of the year and I chose one showing the Boardwalk Fountain Spectacular in it's full glory. I couldn't find a video on YouTube showing last night's fireworks on the beachfront, but the fountains are just as good if not better. The video is by LimeWave.

New Year’s Eve braai with the family

As we were away over Christmas we didn't have a Christmas lunch with the family. We decided to rather do it on New Year's Eve and both Ouma and the In-Laws came over for a braai tonight. Chicken sosaties, cheese sausage, kabernossies (a smoked russian type of sausage), skildpaadjies (minced liver in net fat) and … Continue reading New Year’s Eve braai with the family →

I tried to think how long it's been since the one at the old Tramways building closed down. 20 odd years? The folk of PE had to wait a … Continue reading Cool off on ice this summer →

Fort Frederick and Central

Standing in Fort Frederick looking towards Central the Donkin Lighthouse and Great Flag can be seen on the Donkin Reserve. The building obscuring the lower part of the lighthouse is the Prince Alfred Guard Drill Hall.

Guarding the harbour

When last have you been to Fort Frederick? Most of us get to visit the fort as kids while on a school tour of the city, but I bet a big number of Port Elizabethans have never been back there as adults.

Pollok Beach wave pool time lapse

Seeing that yesterday was Christmas there was no Video Friday post. I decided to not skip the video of the week though so here it is today. How many of us didn't swim in the "wave pool" in front of Something Good at Pollok Beach when we were kids? To think of it, I should … Continue reading Pollok Beach wave pool time lapse →

Christmas selfie

This year rather than posting a Christmas tree or Christmas scene I decided to post a Christmas selfie. Ok, so I admit it's both a tree and a scene, but it is a selfie after all. I would like to wish all my Christian friends and family as well as all my blog and social … Continue reading Christmas selfie →
