Pretoria

First day in South Africa - Pretoria

The day started finding Francesca in the queue of the passport controls, which was a very pleasant surprise, since the queue was very long and the airport very big!
Getting the car was a real adventure! After a very long queue, the guy tried first to give us the wrong car!
Driving was easier than expected, and I got used to it quite fast!

After checking in at the Hotel 224 in Pretoria m, we took a shower, made a plan for the afternoon and then directly out in the street!

The experience in the city was not as expected! The city is chaotic, very noisy, dirty and gives a huge feeling of danger! People often stared at us, made comments about us and talked loud. We took dinner at KFC, the cash had a cage in front of it to divide the staff from the clients!!!

We decided it was best to get home before darkness and spend the evening safe at the hotel!En savoir plus
