Al is ek 'n soutie, is ek so ongelooflik trots om vandag langs my Afrikaanse familie te staan om Afrikaanse Taaldag te vier. Op 14 Augustus 1875 het die Genootskap van Regte Afrikaners in die Paarl gestig. Kom ons vier hierdie Trots Suid-Afrikaanse produk.

The Afrikaans language, from an English South African's perspective, provides us with such descriptive words that are not easy to duplicate or translate in any language and perfectly describe our South African feelings like gees, braai, howzit, lekker, kak, dof, eina, jislaaik and so many more....it is part of our everyday language across all cultures and languages in SA.
Lekker man! I'm moerse proud to be a Gansbaai Afrikenglish.
What words have I forgotten to add....keep it above board asseblief?

Dit is International Vuurtoring Naweek 16 en 17 August! Gansbaai se Danger Point Vuurtoring is oop vir die publiek. Kom geniet 'n fantastiese uitstappie saam met familie en vriende. Verversings te koop.

GansbaaiCourant het ons vertel van die jongklomp op 'n opvoedkundige uitstappie Danger Point Vuurtoring toe geneem.

"Die waaghalsiges is vinnig die 99 trappe op om die wydste uitsig wat Gansbaai kán bied, te gaan besigtig. Johan en Alma le Roux, Vriende van die Vuurtoring, het die tragiese Birkenhead bootramp verhaal vertel, hulle die blaasgat gaan wys en ook verduidelik hoe die mishoring funksioneer.

What a fantastic afternoon with Fair Trade Tourism and a number of our tourism stakeholders in the Overstrand area. White Shark Projects hosted the event and there were spectacular platters as well as delicious wine from Painted Wolf Wines at this incredible venue overlooking Kleinbaai Harbour in Gansbaai. Forty five guests attended including our Deputy Mayor, Elnora Gillion, and Overberg Tourism Manager, Frieda Lloyd.

Grace Stead, General Manager of Fair Trade Tourism, provided some very interesting insights for our tourism establishments in the Overberg on how we are able to align our brands with international standards in ethical best practice and responsible tourism that benefits our natural environment and our local communities. This applies to both small and large entities. Our local and international visitors are wanting to know our ethical standing before they transact with us without the greenwashing jargon and this certification provides internationally accepted recognition. The Overberg is perfectly placed to benefit from the positive impact this would have on the region’s tourism efforts. We are, after all, an incredible world class destination.

Next time you are in Gansbaai make sure to stay at Whalesong Lodge or visit Marine Dynamics Shark Tours and White Shark Projects, as they are all FTT certified.
