Goodbye 2014 – watch out 2015, here I come
Is it just me or did 2014 fly past at the speed of light.

Happy Valley – a kids’ paradise
Happy Valley is one of the real Port Elizabeth institutions. We all went there as children and its great to be able to take our children there these days.

I really like … Continue reading Don’t forget to turn the water off

Caching the Trig Beacon Series

Chris and Denise of ChrisDen has put together a nice little Geocaching series that takes one along the Wildside, through Summerstrand and to the back of the airport, discovering six different beacons before looking for the #7 … Continue reading Caching the Trig Beacon Series
