We landed in Johannesburg a little after 9pm last night and arrived at the Woodpecker Inn at 11:30pm, where we will be staying until we find a house. They get up super early here, so I’m going to have to change my sleeping schedule if I want to eat breakfast in the mornings. Since we got in a little late last night, we were served breakfast at 9am today. After breakfast we headed over to Menlyn mall to set up Steve’s cell phone and pick up some power converters. A few things I noticed at the mall:
- They don’t serve fountain drinks, anywhere. I really wanted a coke with ice, but had to settle on a bottle, instead.
- Cream soda is green!
- Even though it’s 20C+ right now, a lot of people wear hats and scarves. I guess this is winter season for them, though.
- The stores are overflowing with employees. They are literally everywhere, just standing around or chatting.
I love our room. We have a balcony and a view of the golf course. I’ll post some photos in a bit.
