Going to be in South Africa (based in Cape Town) from the 30 of Dec to the 15 of January with the missus. It's her first time in the Republic.

Any recommendations aside from the obvious? About to book an overnight Safari in Inverdoon and will do Robben island etc.

Nice restaurants etc

Dude, you really should set up your own YouTube channel.

"How Slimfast changed my life and got me regular poontang".

"From fat boy to fück boy in three easy steps".

You'd make a mint.

You can do a gay version.

SA would be grand, but are many people actually travelling far for Christmas holidays?

some scenic Routes such as the Garden Route or a drive up to Hermanus or a drive through Paarl up to the top of Baviaanskloof.
a Currie Cup game at Newlands if spectators allowed

Gong to head to Simonstown and up the Franshook etc.

More thinking of something off the beaten track.

Take a drive out to Hangklip for a lunch and some beers - the hotel should be good. Mainly locals.

We recently went to a few places that could be seen as off the beaten track, including the Cheetah Outreach in Somerset West where you can get up close to a Cheetah, and the Eagle Encounters at Spier, Stellenbosch. Really loved spending time at both places.

assfly · Post by **assfly** » Tue Dec 08, 2020 8:24 am

I always enjoy visiting Durbanville. Not quite as busy as Stellenbosch and the rest and much closer if you're in Blouberg.

Spier is off the beaten track now?

Spier was packed but hardly anyone at EE.

Agreed.
Fantastic Sauv Blancs and it is much less touristy than Paarl & Stellenbosch.

You can always visit me at Struisbaai, Africa most southern point where the Indian and Atlantic Oceans meet. I.ll teach you to braai and to swear in afrikaans and drink proper wine and beer

La Colombe, I have never been there, but I hear it is fantastic if you are into the whole 8 course pairing vibe

Best thing about CT I think is the Seafood.

Some of the platters in Dublin would easily cost you 70 euro

assfly · Post by **assfly** » Wed Dec 09, 2020 10:39 am

I always head to this place when I'm in town for Seafood. Never disappointed.
