My Mandela House selfie

I recently had the privilege to go on a Soweto Tour with City Sightseeing Joburg and one of our stops was Mandela House in Vilakazi Street. Last time I was in Soweto they were still busy with the renovations on the house so I took the opportunity to visit and have a look. There are various quotes … Continue reading My Mandela House selfie →

St Phillips church revisited

Back in the early days of PE Daily Photo before I took over from Sue and Max, the St Philips Anglican Church in Richmond Hill got featured on a fairly regular basis, specially around sunrise or sunset. That's because Sue and Max live just up the road from it. I on the other hand live … Continue reading St Phillips church revisited →

The Constitutional Court and the Joburg skyline

The Constitution Court is the highest court in South Africa and is situated on Constitution Hill in Johannesburg. Surrounded by what used to be the Number 4 Prison, the Old Fort and the Women's Jail, the court forms part of Constitution Hill and can be visited while on a tour of the precinct. I didn't get to go on the … Continue reading The Constitutional Court and the Joburg skyline →

Mussels on the beachfront

The other day I asked the question, "How many of us still take our kids to explore rock pools around the Port Elizabeth coastline?" Well, if you do you will encounter a lot of mussels on the rocks at low tide. When I took the photo I had this grand idea to give you a … Continue reading Mussels on the beachfront →

Kings Beach selfie frame

One of the features as part of the Kings Beach Park development is a beach chair selfie frame which Drama Princess just had to try out while on last weekend's Instawalk in the area.

Kings Beach scales of grey

The municipality (or I think it was the municipality) recently erected new lifeguard huts on the city's main beaches. On last weekend's Instawalk in the Kings Beach area I snapped this pic on a cloudy and gloomy morning showing the lifeguard huts ready and waiting for summer and the influx of holiday makers visiting the city during … Continue reading Kings Beach scales of grey →

Karoo Riverbed

A couple of months ago I spent a night at Ganora Guest Farm outside Nieu Bethesda. What an amazing place! Although I didn't have a lot of time but did get to do a tour of JP's Fossil Museum. Unfortunately I didn't get to go and see the rock drawings on the farm. Before heading into … Continue reading Karoo Riverbed →

Hector Pieterson Memorial in Soweto

The Memorial along with the Hector Pieterson Museum is situated in Orlando West and commemorate the role of the country’s students in the struggle against apartheid. The site is just a few blocks from where the 12-year-old Hector Pieterson … Continue reading Hector Pieterson Memorial in Soweto →

Do more of what makes you happy

I found this piece of graffiti at the Kings Beach Skate Park last weekend. The first thing that I noticed was that it was done with what looked like pastels and not paint. Interesting. The main thing though is the message and even though this one is aimed at skateboarders, I think its an universal … Continue reading Do more of what makes you happy →

Today is the second Geocaching Saturday post and for the second time it features a cache placed by GeorgeC12. George have been posting some great caches lately and really deserves every favourite point he gets awarded. In this cache I went in search of Feathered Friend Lucy. Lucy is a parrot and she clearly didn't have her … Continue reading Looking for Feathered Friend Lucy →
