What Bloggers say about Port Elizabeth on 7 May 2012

7 May 2012 By Alan Straton

Out of the top 64 blog posts mentioning Port Elizabeth that we looked at today we selected 10 blogs that mention Port Elizabeth for our showcase below.

The results were dominated by two topics – the ‘mauling’ of a Scottish Tourist by a local Cheetah (who said Africa was for Sissies!) and the Afcon Cup coming to Port Elizabeth.

MyPE provides this roundup in order to promote Port Elizabeth and to encourage fellow bloggers to expand their coverage of Port Elizabeth and surrounds.

MyPE extends grateful thanks to bloggers and online media  for their continued excellent coverage of Port Elizabeth and our events.
