When Italians eat, every meal is a loud and joyous celebration of family, food and wine, with recipes and traditions passed down from generation to generation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For those who are suffering from a little cabin fever and are looking to do something different this Heritage Day, Rioma suggests the following:<\/p>\n<p>Go away for the long weekend: The thrill of being able to get away for the long weekend, is priceless. But after the year we\u2019ve all had, who can really afford to pay premium prices? There are so many discounted rates and special offers on accommodation and flights, if you just know where to look. For example, you can get instant access to more than 10 000 resorts and hotels in South Africa (and more than 500 000 around the world) with up to 50% off as a member of First Loyalty Plus.<\/p>\n<p>Take a cultural or theme tour: Be a tourist in your own town! There are wonderful places to explore right on our doorsteps \u2013 just step outside to find the most wonderful hidden gems. If you\u2019re in KZN, Phezulu Safari Park is a great place to experience traditional Zulu dancing. In Cape Town? Take a boat ride to Robben Island and learn more about the prison that held Nelson Mandela captive for 18 years. Jo\u2019burg? Hop on a tourist bus and discover places you didn\u2019t even know existed.<\/p>\n<p>See your world from a different view: Have you always dreamt of flying up, up and away in a helicopter or hot air balloon? Maybe you\u2019re an adrenalin junkie and you\u2019re into the thrill of shark cage diving, skydiving or bungee jumping, but haven\u2019t yet taken the plunge? If the cost has been prohibitive, then here\u2019s great news \u2013 there are literally a million special offers waiting for you to take advantage of, at highly competitive rates, if you just know where to find them.<\/p>\n<p>Go for coffee with family: Sometimes celebrations can be as simple as going out for coffee with family or friends, spending quality time face-to-face simply lingering with time on your hands. Bearing in mind that everyone\u2019s budgets are stretched to capacity, you\u2019ll need to get creative when it comes to maximising your moola, so look for great deals like 2 for the price of 1 coffee specials, or cash-back deals on meals.<\/p>\n<p>Have a (small) braai: Central to any kind of celebration is the food, and Heritage Day is the perfect opportunity to showcase your cultural gems \u2013 be it bunny chow or breyani, koeksisters or pap and wors! While we may differ culturally, few will argue that nothing beats the smell of shisa nyama being cooked on an open fire (but we warned, you\u2019ll face ridicule if you opt to take a shortcut and use the gas braai). Why not gather a small group of family or friends around the braai and organise a potjie competition? (Don\u2019t forget to keep numbers less than 10, social distance and sanitize!)<\/p>\n<p>Rioma\u2019s parting advice? \u201cJoin First Loyalty Plus for only R125 per month to get access to amazing deals on accommodation, activities, online shopping, car hire, cruises, flights, meals, movies, spa treatments etc. Happy Heritage Day!\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mypr.co.za\/contact\/featured\/\">CLICK HERE to submit your press release to MyPR.co.za<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-pagination pagination\">Pages: <span class=\"post-page-numbers current\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Page <\/span>1<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/mypr.co.za\/nou-gaan-ons-braai\/2\/\" class=\"post-page-numbers\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Page <\/span>2<\/a><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mypr.co.za\">Source: MyPR.co.za<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Celebrate Heritage Day 5 ways to celebrate Heritage Day: The 24 September 2021 is Heritage Day and the great news is that this year, it falls on a Friday, resulting in a lovely long weekend, without having to take any extra leave!
