East London Airport is located just to the South of East London off the main R72 route that takes you to Port Alfred. There is plenty of parking available at the airport with undercover parking available if you need it. If you are just dropping someone off there is a free 15 minute drop off place just outside the main terminal. There are a number of ticket machines outside and inside the airport to pay your parking before returning to your car. (more…)

The third day of this year’s annual Bathurst Agricultural Show in the Eastern Cape of South Africa turned out to be the best day in terms of weather. Warm sunshine and blue skies greeted the hundreds of visitors creating a perfect day. Having paid our R50 (adults) entrance fee we set off to wander around the many and varied stalls selling everything from clothes, pet accessories, home grown food, crafts, gardening tools to toys.

The Bathurst Agricultural Show is spread out across the Bathurst Showgrounds located just outside the pretty village of Bathurst. There is plenty of parking available in the surrounding fields. (more…)
