Johannesburg- a city which is our prison...

Hello Everyone,

 

Ozell and I are ready to leave South Africa.  We are burned out concerning this country and continent.  We want to move on to Southeast Asia.  Unfortunately, the shitty internet service in this country and especially the hostels is costing us valuable time because we are unable to communicate with our travel agent back home or make our own arrangements online.  For a country that attempts to claim it is "first world", South Africa is worst than Bolivia or Peru when it comes to internet bandwidth, speed, and general availability.  In fact, it doesn't even compare to Peru or Bolivia.  SA is the worst country that we have traveled to yet concerning anything digital.

 

Anyways, since we are just wasting our time here, I thought I would catch up on some blog posts.  Although no one will probably see these posts until we are already in Singapore due once again to the completely shitty internet access here.

 

I'm sure that Johannesburg (Jburg) has very nice sides to it, but unfortunately we feel more like prisoners in our own hostel.  Even if the hostel is in a decent neighborhood, most people tell us not to walk very far in wither direction unless we want trouble.  I am not sure how they are going to handle the World Cup coming here in 2010.

 

Anyways, we are fine and looking forward to Asia even though it is going to be their monsoon season.  Lol.

 

More to come....
