Letter to dad:South Africa

by Jerri on April 28, 2005

Hey Dad,

OK you asked for it. Here’s the whole route I took in South Africa. I started in Cape Town flying in 24 hours from Atlanta with a layover in Johannesberg. Not really having a plan when I landed I decided to rent a car and drive from Cape Town to Jo’Burg which quickly became more of a chore than a luxury as I realized that they drive on the left side of the road and I rented a manual car. So after nearly getting into an accident in the Hertz parking lot I switched to an automatic car and drove off the parking lot while the employees laughed at me from behind.

I stayed at hostel called

When I got back to the states, Thomas wrote me to tell me his roommate in J’Burg died in his bed at the backpacker and noone noticed for 2 days because everyone just thought he recovering from some heavy partying. Well, maybe he was trying but just didn’t recover. How weird is that?

Ok. I love you! Come visit me. Oh…and my next trip is to Thailand and you’re coming.
