A frothy phenomenon unique to Cape Town’s Sea Point Promenade, are the lager-like foam blowholes; the result of the pressure from the ocean waves blasting through a series of storm water vents positioned on the lawns. A stunning visual treat, slowly becoming more of a drawcard for the tourists flocking to these shores. Photo […]
Whilst it may not contain as much symbolism as, say, the US army pulling down the statue of Saddam Hussein, I think this might be a silent victory for a number of people who work and frequent the area surrounding Long Kloof Studios , Kloof Street, Cape Town. This weekend’s storm was so big and […]
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 […]
Developed from/into the book Eats, Shoots & Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation. As told by Peter Walsh to The Roofer , to me. This may well be the best joke of your life. A Giant Panda A panda walks into a restaurant, sits down and orders a sandwich. After he finishes […]
This incredible shot was sent in today by Mark C, showing the view of Cape Town from the Tygerberg region (home to De Grendel wines). Quite something! An ocean of cloud God only knows what is going on under that blanket!
I remember when my all time favourite Caprice waitress, Justine, first described the Dreamy Burger to me. It was something to do with a slab of cheese on top of the meat, and then she began to describe how the hot mushroom sauce is then poured over that slab of cheese, melting it in the […]
Oh, and I thought these pages were just about sea, sun, champagne, fast cars, yachts and beautiful people? You’re so very wrong, my friend! It’s ALSO about adorable little animals. Like these two gorgeous little meerkats – taken in London last month. Too adorable for words! See? There’s something for everyone! Cheer up.
Ok, the whole “swine flu” topic is on everyone’s lips (good one) and I think it’s reaching a point where we need to be more educated on the topic. Let’s get through that, then we’ll chat about these recent local cases. A friend of mine, Wilfred Ikipedia, filled me in on the vibe. check it […]
Quick thinking. Good. Pass. [thanks nick] BREAKING NEWS : Britain orders 32 million Swine flu face masks. CLICK HERE.
Wow, I certainly hope that this doesn’t effect our local tequila supplies. Remember when that happened a few years back? Suddenly there was no tequila in town. In fact, there was a global tequila shortage if I remember correctly. Hectique! Anyway, you may have heard about the Swine Flu outbreak all over the US. From […]
What’s the weather looking like for this weekend? Look no further! This week’s 2oceansvibe Weather Girl is none other than one of the The BOMB Surf BOMBshells , 21 year old Miss Cape and former Miss SA finalist, Michelle G from M1 Management. We have a little chat with the little treasure before she gives […]
Good. 8/10. [thanks everyone that sent this]
These pics came in many different forms. Some of them came with the headline “Birtish Lions Have Arrived” and some read “Brakpan Lion.” Call it what you what, it’s damn funny. Dangerous? Not so much It’s Friday, my friends – and don’t you forget it!
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. […]
Andy Skinstad has an acute sense of what I enjoy. That is why he sent me this video, showing a chameleon walking over a range of Ray Ban Wayfarers . A chameleon flirts with Seth’s shazzles. Obviously I was quite pleased that they included a red pair like mine in the experiment! Although […]
Taken from The Safe House at around 18h50. Something different. I’m fine with that..
Like Kim Jong il , I do enjoy mass crowd formations and visual displays, using the likes of military armies and gymnasts. I have, however, never seen it done by sheep. Not in the day, nor at night! This will blow your mind: You like that? Amazing, just when you thought you knew […]
Whilst I am certainly 100% behind this cause, I must say, I’m also very excited to actually WITNESS us pulling it off. And by “us,” I mean “the world.” That’s what they’re aiming for; you realise that, right? The whole WORLD is turning off the lights for one hour on March 28. Because of varying […]
Apart from glorious photo’s and stories about the brave firemen, another concern mentioned on the various blogs and Twitters following the recent Table Mountain fire , was the plight of the wildlife. The SPCA has been involved: Wildlife is the main casualty of the fires on Table Mountain – and the SPCA has had […]
Camps Bay Cape Town 15h45 20 March, 2009 Fine!
I got these pics in the middle of the night. Taken at 1am this morning by 2oceansvibe reader, Matt C. For those of you who don’t know the ways of the mountain, Devil’s Peak is the peak on the left of Table Mountain, just above the Tampon Towers. Devil’s Peak, above the Tampon TowersWithout […]
I nipped down between the last article and this one. Just for an hour, you know. Little Beach – on my aceFine! Does that make me a bad person?
The sun shone through very nicely earlier, which resulted in a well deserved little dip at Beta Beach. And now the clouds have come over. Not that it’s a problem from The Safe House, as this is the result.. FINE!
One of the most famous pics to come out of the latest Australian fire tragedy, is this one, showing a fireman giving water to a Koala bear. The bear was first called Ken, but then they found out that he was actually a female. So they went for Sam the Koala Bear. There […]
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..
Our hearts go out to the ex-pats over in the UK at the moment as we take in this pic taken in Leicester Square this week. It’s nice to see that even cats in the UK are aware of the meltdown and are willing to do their bit. Money attracts pussy.. [thanks john]
