First Few Days in SA

For our first 4 nights in South Africa, we stayed at the Reef Hotel in the city centre.


(These pics are from Google we didn't take any.)

Thursday Jan. 5th:  After we had a some sleep our first night here, Michael had to get up and head to the court! He asked a fellow clerk to pick him up that morning.  Jayce and I hung out at the hotel just waiting for Michael's return. He and I both were a little under the weather with allergies. 



When Michael did return, he had another clerk waiting down stairs who drove us to Rent-A-Wreck. Check out our new wheels!!! P.S. the fancy hub caps are zip tied on!!!! For security purposes you know!!!!


That night we had dinner with the clerk who drove us. I didn't catch the name of the restaurant, but Michael had lamb curry and I had vegetable curry.

Now that we had some wheels, we were able to check into some places to live. Friday, we spent time contacting people, found a grocery store, and then found dinner...a bucket of chicken from KFC!


He doesn't go any where, but he tries.

Saturday January 7th: We found a temporary apartment that is a one bedroom with a table and kitchenette and a bathroom. We will stay in that apartment until Feb. 1st when they have a little larger one available.

Since we had already booked an additional night at the hotel, we moved most of our stuff to the apartment and then went out to dinner. We ate at Dros.
