We toured Soccer City stadium in Johannesburg with 5 other people and our friendly guide named Efram. The locker rooms were very unimpressive but the stadium and field were pretty cool. The kids would liked to have kicked the ball around but we were not allowed on the grass. Its capacity is 90,000 people.
Apartheid Museum
We were not allowed to take any photos inside of the museum. We read about the history of apartheid for over 3 ½ hours and then came to a sign saying we were at the half way point of the tour…as we were heading back to our host family that evening and wanted to minimize the time we traveled in the dark we cut our tour short (it gets dark about 6:15 PM). There are not words to describe the emotions of this experience.
It's wonderful reading your blogs and what a fantastic experience you all are having! Can't wait to meet up and hear more details about all of them! Mary Jo
