Johannesburg 27 – 28 Dec 2011
Posted by oeifendy on 27 December 2011
Arrived in Johannesburg at 11am picked up by hostel owner then rest in Bob’s Bunk House 10 mins away from the airport. The hostel owners very warm and friendly. They made my planning easier. Too tired to go anywhere so decided to rest in the hostel whole day. Went out a while for lunch and bought some snacks for dinner.
Next day went to visit Soweto one very historical town in South Africa. On the way we passed through a very quiet Johannesburg city because it was Christmas day. In Soweto, we got a chance to see the poverty in South Africa. We also entered one of the houses. It’s super small house about 6msq that accommodates 3 people. No aircon no fan … just wondering how they can live there for 20 years already.
Next went to see Apartheid Museum that tells the life of Nelson Mandela. Also saw the stadium used to host the opening and closing ceremony for world cup 2010.
Moving on to see Hector Pieterson Museum and Nelson Mandela’s house.
Back to hostel around 5pm then went KFC to da bao dinner.
