Cape Town | Week 11 (1105-1805)
18 de maio de 2022, África do Sul ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C
Für die letzten beiden Wochen in Kapstadt (😱) habe ich mir eine kleine To-Do-Liste erstellt, die fleißig umgesetzt wird.

So waren wir letzte Woche Mittwoch im ARMCHAIR zur Open Mic Comedy Night. Wir Nicht-Muttersprachler haben glücklicherweise doch mehr als zuvor angenommen verstanden. Es hat sich auch hier wieder bestätigt: semigute Idee, sich bei einer Comedy-Show in die erste Reihe zu setzen, da waren wir etwas klüger als andere.

Das vergangene Wochenende war rein von den Aktivitäten her mit das Beste, was ich hier bzw. generell seit Langem erlebt habe. Am Freitag hatte unser „Hostel-Küken“ Geburtstag - und was macht man natürlich nach dem freitagsüblichen Grillen?! Ist doch klar: 6 Mädels gehen in einen Strip Club 🔥😬 Wir wohnen schließlich aktuell mit einer der Tänzerinnen zusammen und die hat sich mega gefreut, als wir sie auf Arbeit besucht haben. Selbst tanzend sind wir danach noch im VILLAGE IDIOT aktiv geworden - selbstverständlich mit Klamotten. 😋

Samstag war mal wieder ein Besuch auf dem Neighbourgoods Market angesagt und von dort aus ging es zum Stechen weiterer Ohren-Piercings. Kleiner Tipp von mir: wenn ihr eure AirPods weiterhin tragen wollt, lasst euch nicht gleichzeitig Tragus und Conch stechen, Heilungszeit minimum 6-9 Monate. Hupsiii. 🤭
Ein letztes Kila G Konzert stand auf der Wunschliste ebenfalls ganz oben, sodass am Samstag das sehr intime Piano-Set in meiner liebsten Whisky-Bar YOBO sehr gelegen kam. Isy hat mir dann noch die SECRET GIN BAR gezeigt, ehe wir im Electro-Club MODULAR gelandet sind. Hatte tatsächlich dezente Berlin-Vibes, was ich ja grundsätzlich gut finde. Die Türpolitik ist aber nicht ansatzweise zu vergleichen, die ist quasi nicht existent.

Und am Sonntag haben wir uns zu fünft dann gen Norden aufgemacht, um in den Atlantis Dunes Sandboarden zu gehen. Super Idee, ich als nicht Snowboard fahrende Person. 😂 Aber alles ist mehr oder weniger heile bei uns allen geblieben, trotz mehrfacher Stürze. Wir hatten jedenfalls eine ganze Menge Spaß - und noch viel mehr Sand überall. Der rieselte noch ein paar Tage weiter hier in der Villa. 😄

Da am Montag noch einmal knapp 30 Grad waren (jetzt aber wirklich der letzte Sommertag!), ging es an meinen liebsten Strand: Llandudno Beach. Inklusive wunderschönem Sonnenuntergang. 🌅

Calvinia to Tankwa
4 de setembro de 2016, África do Sul ⋅ ☀️ 25 °C
The drive through Calvinia on a Sunday was uneventful to say the least. In fact it seemed like the whole town was hibinating!

To my surprise, a few people were at the local Spar, which closed at 13h00, doing some last minute shopping.

We took the road from Calvinia to Middlepos then came down the Gannaga Pass into the park. There were still flowers on the road at the top, but hardly any in the park.Leia mais

Langkloof Campsite #1
5 de setembro de 2016, África do Sul ⋅ ⛅ 15 °C
At the end of a "dead-end" we got to our 1st night's accommodation. An old farmhouse once stood here, which has now been modernised with gas geysers, flush loo's and very civilised showers and kitchen facilities.

After what started as a very warm evening in the rooftop tent, from 02h00 to be exact, I want sure whether we were going to land up in Calvinia or Beaufort West. The wind howled incessantly, stopping every 10 minutes or so, just enough for one to dose before starting up again.

So glad we'll be in fixed accommodation for the next 3 nights!Leia mais

Langkloof - the story
5 de setembro de 2016, África do Sul ⋅ ⛅ 15 °C
After very little sleep, we got up to huge cloud banks and even a couple of drops of rain....

While having breakfast, a bakkie came ambling along. What we thought were the next campers, turned out to be the grandson and nephew of the man who had owned built the original farmhouse which now stands in tatters next to the new kitchen and bathroom.

Johann, introduced himself to us and over a cup of coffee told us the story of Langkloof farm.

The old farmhouse to the left of our campsite, was originally owned by his grandparents, and the house where we camped belonged to his uncle who lived there until about 20 years ago. They were sheep farmers who lived in the area for many years.

He told us stories of how they as kids used to slide down the rocks on pieces of "Botterboon" trees, much to the horror of their parents as the these trees left a nasty red residue which wasn't easy to remove from their clothes! They also used to walk up into the kloof to hunt, taking no water along in temperatures often in excess of 40 degrees! When they returned, and reached the river, they simply swept away the frog slime from the top of the water and drank deeply to rehydrate! Crazy ...

He also told us how some of his uncle's Boerbokke roamed into the kloof opposite the farm and bred there. They became totally wild, were extremely hardly and rather aggressive.

About 2km from our campsite are the remnants of his grandparent's farm. The windmill still turns, bringing precious water to the water basin, once used my their livestock, now only used by the birds and I guess occasionally by some of the game in the area. Under a couple of Bluegum trees are 3 graves which belong to some of his relatives.

All in all, an interesting morning.Leia mais

Tankwe National Park
5 de setembro de 2016, África do Sul ⋅ ⛅ 15 °C
Having visited this area exactly 3 years ago, which was a colourful wonderland, we were greeted by dry, drab, dusty roads and very little colour. Apparently the very early rains meant that the flowers were in bloom the 2nd week of July!

Although a little disappointed, we got to see a different side to the park to when we were here last.Leia mais

Tankwa Guest house
5 de setembro de 2016, África do Sul ⋅ ⛅ 15 °C
Although a welcome relief from the howling wind, the accommodation is a little "out of the ordinary" for the area.

What was once a Lucern farm, the old farmhouse had been turned into a 3 bedroom shared facility. Each room has it's s own bathroom, but the communal area's are shared.

There's even an enclosed courtyard with a swimming pool!Leia mais
