Just hiring a car proved to be more difficult than first anticipated, with all the 8 seaters unavailable. Thrifty came to our rescue with an 8 seater van, which we now believe that must've been out the back for maintenance as it has more than one small flaw....
Undaunted, we poured over the newly purchased maps, and expertly navigated our way through the intricate freeway system, which is undergoing a major overhaul to be ready for the FIFA World Cup to be hosted by South Africa in June this year. We made our way our way to Zeerust to pick up our friend Tebogo, and made it Mafikeng in style - surprising even ourselves! Now we can say we have really experienced Africa!
It was a relief to roll out our camping mats, and finally settle in at our new home for the next few days, with our kind hosts Lorato and his wife Christina.
