JOBURG 2009-03

hi everyone;-) i know and im sorry as well, that it has been a long time ago, i wrote in my blog... last week, claudia and myself went to joburg, south africa. she came as a passenger (could travel both ways on business class) and i had to work;-( after a 10.5hours flight we finally arrived in joburg. a view hours later, marc picked us up at the hotel and we went to the "little africa park". there we made a sort of safari trip by car during 2.5hours. it was awesome beautiful!!! we could see so much different animals and we even could cuddle with elephants;-) the weather wasnt that nice but ok. after that trip we went to "la bastida lodge". it is a dutch family (marcs parents) how is working there. very nice people;-) so we spent an amazing evening togehter and the cooked for us as well. it was a shame, that we were so tired. but it seems to be normal, cause joburg is 1800meters high!! its true, i couldnt believe that.... however, the next day, we went to a touristic market close to the lodge. and than we had to go back to the hotel, cause it was quit late already. 3hours later (6pm) we had already pick up and went to the airport back... flying home.... but we were both (claudia and me) very impressed about the south africa. it is completly different than the north part of the country;-).....
