Louvain Escapades: A Pit Stop to Remember!

Louvain Escapades: A Pit Stop to Remember!

After a weekend packed with fun in Cape Town, it was time to head home. But why make a straight trip when you can throw in a little adventure, right? On our drive down, a sign for Louvain caught our eye, promising mountain biking, 4×4 trails, and accommodation for every taste. Originally, Knysna was in our plans, but the prospect of Louvain lured us like a siren’s song. “Let’s do something different,” we mused, and on Sunday, we found ourselves…

Montagu Madness: Biking, Sweating, and Scenic Sipping!

Montagu Madness: Biking, Sweating, and Scenic Sipping!

So, we embarked on this brave (some might say slightly bonkers) mission from PE to Cape Town for the weekend. The mission: cram in some quality time with family and friends, and sneak in some cycling because why not turn an 8-hour car ride into an epic adventure on wheels? We left PE at the crack of dawn (seriously, the sun was barely awake) to make time for a pit stop at Montagu. The plan was to stretch our legs…

Spontaneous 4×4 Adventure: From Sundowners to Buffalo Sightings in the Baviaanskloof

On a Friday night around 10 PM, following sundowners at Sardinia Bay, sitting with friends and sharing a few drinks, one of them suddenly says, “Why don’t we go for a 4×4 trip to the Baviaans tomorrow?” And guess who was the first to say yes? Yep, that would be us. This happened without a second thought, completely forgetting that we had a full day planned. But hey, spontaneity is the spice of life, right? The plan was simple: meet…

Sundowners at Sards: A Sunset, Laughter, and Love-Filled Evening

Sundowners at Sards: A Sunset, Laughter, and Love-Filled Evening

Friday night kicked off with sundowners at Sards, and let me tell you, it’s the best medicine after a long, busy week. Just sitting on top of the dune, drinks in hand, with the most amazing friends, watching the sun edge closer and closer to the horizon until it just disappears. But before it does, wow, what a show it puts on! It goes from a yellow ball in a blue sky to a rainbow of colors that follow. The…

Flyaway Battlewagon 2024

Flyaway Battlewagon 2024

What an unforgettable weekend! It was a flyaway adventure, something we hadn’t done in ages. Back in the day, this was our regular gig, but then our boys came along, and we had to swap jet-setting for diaper duty. So, this weekend was extra special. We took off from Uitenhage Airfield in a Cessna 182, ZS-OFI, with some close friends, with two more aircraft joining the party for the two-night stay at the De Stijl Hotel at Gariep Dam. The…
