Saturday was a busy day down in Camps Bay, with some kind of celebration/event going on. Something by the name of “Spring Tide” – resulting in hordes of youngsters over-populating the Camps Bay strip and beach. The Muse, The Photographer, Eddie S and I decided to take some refuge in the bar at The Bay […]
Not sure if you know, but we had a really tough day yesterday.. Camps Bay’s exclusive “Bali Bay” Camps Bay beach yesterday – fine! I spotted the new Audi A5 convertible cruising around Oooooh! I’ll be honest – I’m tempted.. I think I might pay a visit to Audi Centre Cape Town! Night night.. […]
I’ve had a stunning Summer’s day today. Popped into Yacht Squadron at the Waterfront (we are now calling this the “backfire” – a new word, by G-Man) to get my current Sebago shoes size as Mother Dearest is currently in the States and insists on buying me a pair. I don’t have a problem with […]
Oh my God! Look at this! We do not have all the info at the mo, but what we do have are these pictures and the report below. Photo from Life Is Savage (Courtesy of Grant Hood) Photo courtesy of @heinkoen This, from News24: Cape Town – A container carrying potentially harmful […]
BLATANTLY ignoring Vida e’s polite public-led request (here) for cyclists to remove their helmets when frequenting their establishment; it seems that THESE cyclists couldn’t care less about the general public’s wishes regarding their grossly inappropriate, anti-social and imposing behaviour. This, sent in this morning by a 2oceansvibe reader and concerned fellow citizen. Camps Bay […]
I went for a little walk along Camps Bay beach last Sunday, when the mist was just beginning to get up to it’s tricks. We took in the reverse view from the rocks at the end. I liked what I saw and noticed that the Atlantic Ocean was playing another classic game of “lake-lake.” I’ve […]
Last night brought along a killer sunset which rounded up the weekend weather quite nicely. Those of you who caught last week’s 2oceansvibe Weather Girls Show would have known about that awesome weekend weather that we had. God, it was good! Last night’s sunset (A bit of saturation never hurt anyone..) It was […]
So some friends from L.A. rolled into town for a week and managed to pack in quite a bit. They stayed at the new One & Only hotel (review pending – the jury is still out) at the V&A Waterfront and headed out each day, ticking off the various adventures to be had. It was […]
“Kudos” obsessives will definitely give the audacious driver of this Vespa “kudos” for his/her parking ON Camps Bay beach . It is SO brazen, SO radical and SO brilliantly rude, that we should do nothing but stand and applaud. In the words of Montell Jordan.. “THIS IS HOW WE DO IT!” Stand up from […]
Although there was a perfect sunset from The Safe House last night, the wind picked up in a big way and blew well into the night. [pause for effect] With the wind pumping through from about 20h00 last night, I was worried it would continue into the morning and that I wouldn’t be able to […]
Wow, this is completely different to what I’m doing. London city today (G20 summit = protestor mayhem). This from Steve B: Outside UBS – London city Seth, Thought you may be interested to see what the London city boys are being subjected to. The soap-dodgers then broke windows at one of the bigger banks. […]
Today is the last days of voting for the 2009 South African Blog Awards. It’s a great opportunity for those of you out there that haven’t voted, to do your thing. It is the only way to keep 2oceansvibe going. I can almost guarantee you that if you don’t vote, 2oceansvibe will be no more. […]
Camps Bay Cape Town 15h45 20 March, 2009 Fine!
Spotted outside The Bay Hotel in Camps Bay. From afar On closer inspection Jesus certainly does save! And then he went and blew his savings on a Ferrari! Nice work, JC! This, sent in by Lotte E: Hi Seth I can’t remember if this one has been on 2Oceans yet. Picked up […]
Come on, Man! On a Thursday? At 15h00? 33 degrees? I have ABSOLUTELY no problem with that. *Angel not included. She just arrived with her boyfriend brother. This is what we in the industry refer to as a “bonsella.” ps. It’s 34 degrees tomorrow, my angels – sort your shit out..
It’s not a bad time to be on Cape Town’s Atlantic Seaboard and my heart goes out to those of you who recently departed after your holiday on these shores. For those of you who are still here, or those of you who LIVE here, I thought I would remind you of what is going […]
Well this is just great! I received an email from Warren L, telling me about some statue on a rock and this accompanying iol article. Large statue keeps beachgoers guessing January 08 2009 at 11:05AM By Michelle Jones Alien. Tribute. Mime artist. Religious statement. Mummy. A gift from God. These are just some of […]
I’ll be honest, it’s actually 10 at night and I’ve timed this article to come out in the morning, to grace you with more pearls of glory. Good morning! It all started at 1pm, you see. At La Perla. A boys lunch. It was me, “The Big H” and “The Dude” (fresh from his Kika-Sack […]
Taken from The Safe House Hazy – nice vibe
A little hazy today, actually. 25 degrees, but with this haze vibe going for it. Very nice, mind you – takes the edge off, if you know what I mean. We checked it out after a light lunch at Cappers . G-Man and I went for the calamari, whilst The Dude went for the Club […]
So yesterday I received an email from one of my special readers, informing me of the shit storm brewing over at gotravel24. Someone had written an article entitled “I Love Camps Bay” (good one) and gave a breakdown of why they enjoyed Camps Bay and the various places to see and things to do. The […]
At last, visual evidence of the truck that was blown over outside Caprice yesterday. I can’t believe the photo is right here in front of me. I heard about it and just waited, patiently, for it to land on my lap. It’s so good. The winds are so powerful. They make me so CRAZY! […]
Like taxis, we have come to tolerate our lycra-engulfed brethren and now realise that the only defense is to simply divert young childrens’ attention away from the bizarre behaviour and stray balls on display. Sunday morning gave us some extreme examples of how the Shimano Warriors’ anti-social behaviour has gone WAY past the edge of […]
We’ve chatted before about this lovely game the Atlantic Ocean plays from time to time, called “lake-lake.” That’s what it is doing today. It usually comes with an ever-so-thin haze in the sky, causing the ocean to look almost metallic in colour. Camps Bay – todayvery kak Yup, that’s the one. So anyway, […]
It’s been a while since I visited Beta Beach, and quite some time since the mad-man attacked me with an umbrella (pronounced “madmin” for extra annoyance). So Saturday was spent getting back into the groove. Saturday – very kak The prize for making a mockery of the day goes to this intrepid fellow who nailed […]
I’ll be honest, I had no idea this shit was going down right here in Camps Bay and Clifton! We’ve all seen the Newbie Bowls website before and it was only today that I looked out the car window and spotted the bowling greens from Victoria Road, overlooking Clifton and La Med! I remembered an […]
Sunset at The Safe House, 6 October, 18h51. Camps Bay – tonight To be expected, I suppose – after a day like this: Camps Bay – today Nje..
I know a lot has been said on these pages in the past, and I understand that some of you might think I’m waging a secret little war against the Shimano-ladened breathren. But I’m not. I’m just teasing. I’m just being observant and asking questions. Like right here, right now. I promise I’m not “having […]
