I know nothing about the city, that's the I only posted the doc, cos its all I know about jo burg, but there is the same thing about Philadelphia, so I wouldn't be worried, just be careful out there.

In going Orlando in sept and 2 britidh kids were shot dead there ladt year by a 16 year old, apparently wandered into the wrong neighbourhood, harsh lesson.

They give you a wetsuit, they take u out in the ocean and put out bait to attract the sharks. Your in a cage with a bunch of people next to u and the sharks swim pass trying to eat. It was fun but me telling you the water was cold is a understatement. I have never experienced water that cold in my life. Even with the wetsuit my teeth was shaking uncontrollably.

But I hate cold with a passion. The white people went back in multiple times with no problems.

Yeah, I think it's whether you have a tolerance for it, I can't be in cold water, but I know people who get in the seas around Britain, so in sure an African sea wouldn't be shyt.

The sea in Dominican Republic ladt year was heated like bath water :blessed:

I personally know a few people who visited CT without incident. I did alot of research yesterday but it seems if you have any kind of street smarts you'll be alright. :manny: alot of the reviewers sound like white people who were looking like dinner with their eyes wife open, who were sometimes visibly drunk or going outside the tourist areas which I have no plans of doing.

@dc007 breh when you went did you drive or use public transportation?

I did both. In Joburg/Kruger I rented a car. I actually drove from Joburg to Kruger Park which is about 5/6 hours to the Park gate then another 2 or 3 to get to the area inside of the park.

In capetown I tried to rent a car but it was some event going on and all they had was manual transmissions and I found out pretty quickly in Joburg I didn't know how to drive one of those. They had to special deliver me an automatic in Joburg because the attendants saw me trying to drive out the lot :snoop:

If you reserve in advance you can get an automatic no problem but don't just show up hoping to get one.

In capetown since I couldn't get a car I used public transportation. It wasn't that big a deal because things aren't as spread out as they were in Joburg. You can take cabs (expensive) or they have these white Vans that pick up a lot of passengers and they only charge about 50 cents or something. I was told they were dangerous but I didn't want to spend the cab fares. I ended up ok :yeshrug:
