  • After our visit to Tietiesbaai, we went to Paternoster which is a small village on the West Coast of South Africa. Now this was a real touristy place! The beach at Paternoster was beautiful, such a clean and pristine place. After driving through the village, we headed to St Helena Bay. We found a stunning gravel road which took us all the way to Stompneusbaai, Shelly Point, Britannia Bay and St Helena Bay. There are so many holiday destinations all along the West Coast that we weren't even aware of and it was fun driving along this route. #DustBugs #adventuretravel #southafrica #paternoster #sthelenabay

    I live in Langebaan and visit Paternoster very regularly, having fish and chips on the beach where you filmed it, (best in the west). Watching the crayfish boats or more correctly bakkies come in and chatting to the locals is absolute magic. Then I barter with them for crayfish, mussels or whatever they caught and have a drink at the Panty Bar, another piece of heaven on earth!!

      Fully agree on the fish-and-chips, we just didn't share it on camera. The Panty Bar is definitely on our list for next time. 😁

    I stayed in Pasternoster many years ago over a weekend and I have never forgotten how unique I found it. It's so pretty the way the locals paint their houses and buildings all white, just looks so clean.

    • @DustBugsTravel
      @DustBugsTravel  Год назад +2

      Agreed! I also love the white houses, especially in a seaside town such as this. There are some really nice places there. 🤩🌊 The village has a character all its own.

    Dusty, I only discovered you yesterday and I have spent the most of my Saturday watching your amazing coverage of my beloved country. Keep going ! You might consider having a go at the night sky anywhere in the Karoo.

    • @DustBugsTravel

      Welcome, we're so happy that you've joined us! 🤩 We love the night sky and will certainly make a point of filming it when in the Karoo next. We'll just have to set the alarm, because we normally pass out before the real spectacle starts! Driving on gravel roads all day can be tiring sometimes! 😁 Thank you for the brilliant suggestion. 🎇

    I really hope you had some nice wine and seafood at Paternoster!

    • @DustBugsTravel
      @DustBugsTravel  Год назад +1

      Nope, we don't like either that much. The odd glass of wine and calamari or fish once in a while are as far as it goes with us and seafood. We're both from upcountry remember. We love pap and braaivleis. 🤭 And beer! 🍻

    Like I said earlier or rather in one of your more recent episodes I will start at the beginning from episode 1. I have and watch about 5 or more a day. I have found it so satisfying that I now follow or read the replies as well. They are a beautiful community. Except for the one who brought politics into it by trying to inform you about the church and what they stood for way back in time. Let's have none of that people, just enjoy the moment.

    • @DustBugsTravel
      @DustBugsTravel  Год назад +2

      We sometimes watch our older videos too, glad to hear you find them and the comments enjoyable. You said it, enjoy the moment! We travel that way too, we just experience things and places for what they are without any doubt, hesitation or skepticism. 🤩🚗

    Another great excursion! That type of ship in the video is something we see plenty of in Hong Kong! Very nice little towns you've been to! Is Lampies Bay another name for Lamperts Bay?

    • @DustBugsTravel
      @DustBugsTravel  11 месяцев назад +1

      Lambert's Bay is a totally different place to Lampiesbaai, which is a part of St Helena Bay if I understand correctly. 🚢🌊

    could you make a video also driving through Silvertown Bridgetown and Kewtown

    • @DustBugsTravel
      @DustBugsTravel  5 месяцев назад

      I'm not familiar with these place names, but they appear to be suburbs of Cape Town. We won't be driving through any more Cape Town suburbs to make videos. We did a few towards the end of 2022 / beginning of 2023 as part of a local series back then. We now visit towns and places further away from the Western Cape. 🚙

    Baie mooi. Maar waar is die Paternoster Hamburger ???

    • @DustBugsTravel
      @DustBugsTravel  Год назад

      Glad you enjoyed! 😁🚗 I didn't even know there was such a thing as the Paternoster Hamburger! 🤷🏼‍♂️🍔 I'll have to check it out next time! 😎

    Is this in South Africa?

    • @DustBugsTravel
      @DustBugsTravel  Год назад

      Indeed. It's on the West Coast, about 160km from Cape Town! 🚙🇿🇦

    What about breakfast?

    • @DustBugsTravel
      @DustBugsTravel  Год назад

      We have coffee and rusks most mornings. Sometimes we show it, other times I forget. ☕ It's not important to us to have a meal in every single place or town we visit, we often eat on the go. 😁🚙

    Unfortunately this video clip does not capture the essence of Paternoster in the least!!! It hardly scratches the surface.

    • @DustBugsTravel
      @DustBugsTravel  Год назад

      Thank you for taking the time out of your day to write this comment. 👌 Our video, as the other 260+ on our channel, was intended to capture our own perceptions of and experiences in the town, not yours or anyone else's. It remains entirely your choice to watch. 🤷🏼‍♂️

      We have over 300 videos on our channel now and do film our food more in later episodes. 🙂🥩🍔 You have a lot of catching up to do! 😁

    Elke dorpie het 'n groot nie-blanke woonbuurt, wat nie gewys word nie. Paternoster was jare gelede aantreklik gewees. Toe was staatshuisies langs die hoof paaie gebou.

    • @DustBugsTravel
      @DustBugsTravel  Год назад

      You are correct, and there is a very simple reason for that. I film out of the vehicle window and we've had a couple of incidents where my camera was almost grabbed. We travel for enjoyment and I'd like to be relaxed while we're on the road and not worry about my camera the whole time. 🤷🏻‍♂️ You're welcome to visit those suburbs and film them! 🚙😁
