The upper cable station from Kloof Nek
A bit of an unusual view of the upper cable station on top of Table Mountain seen from near the top of Kloof Nek (unusual unless you live in Cape Town and come along this road often that is)
Wildside walk
Most people know the Sacramento Trail at Schoenmakerskop but isn't very familiar with the nearby Fynbos Trail. Out looking for a Geocache last weekend I ventured onto part of the trail and snapped this pic looking west towards Schoenies.
Donkin Heritage Trail on Pasella
I got to be on Pasella on SABC 2 for the first time in 2009 when they were in town to film an insert on the Donkin Heritage Trail. At the time I worked for Nelson Mandela Bay Tourism and got to do the insert with my colleague and good friend Sadie Issacs. We met presenter Vicky … Continue reading Donkin Heritage Trail on Pasella

Buffeljagsrivier farmstall dam

A grumbling tummy made me pull over at a farm stall at Buffeljagsrivier near Swellendam to look for a pie and something to drink. Behind the farm stall was a big piece of grass with this farm dam and it is where I snapped … Continue reading Buffeljagsrivier farmstall dam
