A very interesting, short historical walk on a cold, rainy day in Port Elizabeth. Through Victoria Park, down to the ruins of St Peter's Church in South end. Great to see how these unique places are still being preserved. Ended with a Sherry to ward off the cold and wet. Wayne Leask Izzy Leask

This year we were honored to assist at checkpoint Lima at the Addo Elephant Ultra Trail run by Live Adventure. We had all the various distance runners come through our checkpoint, which was the last one at 9km before the last bit of flat and then about 4km of winding uphill to the finish. Well done to everyone who finished, especially the 50km, 50 milers and 100 mile runners. Respect. Having done this run ourselves 5 years ago, it was nice to be on the giving side of the race. And true to checkpoint Lima's tradition, a caffeine concoction named 'Hapoor se P*s' was offered to get these tough athletes over that last hill 😅 Wayne Leask Izzy Leask

The Harbour at Laaiplek, Velddrift. Those fishing boats can tell many stories.
DIE VLEKVISHUIS has THE BEST hake, calamari & chips EVER! Really, they even top the Houtbay fish. Now we know how it should taste when fresh and properly made. Compliments to the owner, Frans, who is totally hands on and creates a great local vibe there.
Huge mussels washed onto the beach and the seagulls pick them up, fly and drop them on the tar or cement so they crack open and then eat them. Interesting to watch.
Port Owen has a beauty of its own.

Ever heard of the blue house with the name Poesiehoek?
Just after crossing the Keisie River in Montague you will spot the beautiful blue double-story Cape Georgian style home on the corner at 11 Mill street. Your second glance will confirm what you first saw. This historical beauty is called POESIEHOEK. No jokes!
First built in 1886 as a house, then used as a hospital during the Spanish flu of 1918. It then stood empty for a while as it was believed haunted by the patients who died there. However, twin sisters moved in and turned it into a brothel, and that is how the name came about. 😂😜
Later on it also became a convenience store and today it is a private residence that is still proudly displaying the name "Poesiehoek" 😜
We love how they kept the history alive through its name.

Bokkom Laan in Velddrift on the West Coast. There are not as many bokkoms as there used to be, but we were happy to still see some. Yes, we did eat them, they are much nicer than they smell!
