The Big 5 ..... Kruger Park

Autumn in the Vineyards 🍇🍷

The perfect Protea

The Karoo driving into the Boland

Driving from Johannesburg to Cape Town one must pass through the vast exspance of the Karoo.

One can drive for 50 to 100 kilomeres in a sraight line…..without hitting a curve. Then once clear of the Karoo you drive into the picturesque Boland ….

Cable Car.... Table Mountain

OK…. we finally decided to go up to the top of Table Mountain in the new rotating Cable Car. We first viewed the mountain from Bloubergstrand. It was a beautiful clear day. But windy and chilly on top.

Arniston

The beautiful village of Arniston, with its pretty Fisherman Cottages, Fishing Harbour and beautiful beaches 🐳🐙🐚🐠

Sand Dunes Struisbaai ..

If you have visited Struisbaai ….. you will know one thing for sure…. the wind can blow…. and blow it does…. the sand dunes which are created are very beautiful…… check the beauty ….

Matroosberg

Ok ….. I needed a new car, so Ronnie my good friend talked me into buying a 4x4. and my son and his wife being an adventures couple arranged a visit to Matroosberg Nature Reserve to go on the 4x4 trail and see some snow…What an experience. Breath taking views and very exciting for a first time trip on a 4x4 trail.

Sani Pass Lesotho

Well here we go again….. 4x4 up Sani Pass.

We were so lucky we had clear weather …. so we could capture some fantastic views.

Du Toitskloof Pass...driving down towards Worcester.

The last few weeks luckily we have had rains and snow in the Worcester region of the Western Cape.

Giving us snow covered Mountain Tops…. with beautiful waterfalls cascading down to the rivers filling our dams.

Marloth Park

Our favourite place in the Bush, where you can get up close and personnel with the Wild Life. Situated on the banks of the Crocodile River…. fantastic viewing of Game across the river into the Kruger Park. A place which touches your soul…. relax in the wild.

The busy Weaver

in the middle of the Winter during the rainy season in the Cape, it is the time for the Weaver to get busy a start building his nests.

Struisbaai Harbour ... Trans Agulhas Challenge

Christmas time in Struisbaai, summer holidays warm seas, good fishing, fantastic beaches, great save swimming. A working fishing harbour, which you can watch the launching of boats. And have a good laugh with humorous locals. And every year watch the Trans Agulhas Challenge boat race. Loads of fun things to do…. !!!!!

Molly the Scottie and the Sting Rays.... Struisbaai

A working harbour being a favourite place for our Scottie, with plenty of action and things to do….. even chasing the Sting Rays to get to the fish Titbits thrown in the sea by the Fishermen.

Kappertjies Zevendal Kuilsriver

Once a year after the rains ….. our beautiful Kappertjies burst out in a green lush carpet .

Our Egyptian Geese..... coming into land.

Every morning we come out to feed our Birds…. then as if they are watching us from a distance… these beautiful majestic birds come in silently from nowhere …. showing us there flying skills.

Autumn .... Winter colours .... Zevenwacht...

Ellie Crosses the Crocodile River

Every afternoon the Elephants come down to have a drink at the Crocodile River. Only when they cross it, does become a bit dangerous for Baby Ellie. With the Crocodiles lying in waiting.

Postcard Cafe... with Jonkershoek.

If you live in Cape Town or just visiting, you must take a drive out to Jonkershoek nature reserve.

Fantastic scenery, majestic mountains with beautiful Fynbos ….. rambling walks along mountain streams. or just drive around the nature reserve and take some snap shots.

SA from the Air

When flying from Cape Town to Johannesburg if the conditions are right I manage to get some snaps from my window seat 7F on the way up and coming back down 8A …. Here are but a few of my favourites taken when flying in and out of Cape Town International..

Struisbaai Beach (Die Plaat)

If you want to walk for miles along white sands…… Die Plaat is one of the longest uninterrupted beaches in the Southern Hemisphere. safe swimming beaches situated between Sruisbaai and Arniston.

Gorgeous Birds and Spike the Porcupine...all in our Garden.

We are very lucky to be in town and yet be surrounded by wild life, especially birds …lots of Birds.

And we also have regular visits by the name Spike the Porcupine …who comes down from the hills and helps him self to scraps from our compost heap.

The bread basket of the Klein Karoo...... Calitzdorp 🌻🌼🌵🌿

Calitzdorp is situated inbetween the mountain ranges to the north the Swartberg mountain range…. The mountains of Huisriver pass to the West…..the landscape lends itsself to floods, droughts and extremes in weather, from very hot to snow clad mountaintops in the winter ❄☃️

Muizenberg ..... Fishermen launch boat

Local fishermen have been fishing these waters for many years…. Using nets.

See the beautiful clear waters of False 🐳🐋🐟🐬🐚

Proteas galore.... on the picturesque wine farm "Zevenwacht"
