Food Trucks rocks Port Elizabeth

Friday 18th November saw Port Elizabeth host its first ever Baakens Food Truck Friday. An event organised and run by the local food trucks and trailer owners. As no official attendance was recorded an estimated 3000 revellers descended on Baakens River Valley to get their fill of food, fun and entertainment. According to event organiser Grant Foong the attendance might be north of 3500 which for a first event is mind blowing. This would be the first time only food trucks and trailers would be used to anchor an event and the bay foodies loved the concept. Food ranged from burgers to Asian to vegetarian with some waffles, slush puppies and pancakes sprinkled between.

Exercise... you either love it or hate. Either way, we still need to do it. So let's looks at some hiking spots or walks, particularly around the greater Gqeberha formely Port elizabeth area. The walks or hikes are rated according to their difficulty, beauty and accessibility. 1. The Sacramento Trail Probably the best kept secret, that's not realy a secret, in Port Elizabeth. This trail offers spectacular scenery as it hugs the coastline. Starting at Schoemakerskop it stretched all the way to Sardinia Bay. Offering amazing scenery and easy accessibility. The trail is named after the Sacramento, a Portuguese galleon that sank 1647. This story is also particularly intriguing as the ship ran aground in the vicinity of Schoenmakerskop and Sardinia Bay, with only 72 survivors making it to the shore. Of those, just nine managed to trek the 1,300-kilometre distance to Delagoa Bay (Maputo) in Mozambique and only four of these men made the trip back home to Portugal. 2.Norm...
