大开眼界 - South Africa Part 4
(Thursday / 17:24)
31st August
The bus ride took us to
Bergkelder Wine Centre & Wine Meseum and we had a tour around the place. Again I regret not paying more attention to my class hehe We tried some of their wine and I had a few sip since I am not a fan of it, except dessert wine. Did not get any wine back although it was cheap.
It was raining when we left the place and while we traveled to our dinner venue, we saw double rainbow stretching widely! I have never seen so much rainbow within a few days before. It was such a pretty sight :)
For dinner, the highlight was the abalone hehe After that we headed to a shopping mall for some free time and together with my cousin, we bought cakes because the cakes look so big and appetizing! However it was not to my liking. Compared to Singapore, it taste like cakes you will buy around your neighbourhood area.
And surprisingly we actually finished all the food we bought there! My aunt actually packed a whole bag of food okay. We gave some away to our guide at Entabeni and finished up the rest despite being really full after our dinners.
1st September
Had our last breakfast at the hotel and we went off to some place that sells diamond. It's not something that appeal to me, yet, so I spent most of my time at the souvenir shop. Bought a couple of cool stuff there while waiting for the adults. And they had a shock of their lives while purchasing the diamonds haha because all along everything was charged in South Africa currencies and our tour guides told us again and again that they do not take anything in US dollars but the diamonds were actually sold in US dollars! And each of the diamond they chose were actually enough to buy a house/car (cannot remember which) back in Malaysia.
After that we made a couple of stops for souvenirs and sightseeing before heading to the airport. And the flight back was slightly longer than our flight there. My ass hurts.

So there, I finally completed my adventure to SA and only now I realised I had the month wrongly haha
This trip is so enriching to me and it even changed my mindset of South Africa. To be honest I like the place quite a bit. Enough to give me thought of moving there. Mostly because the pace of life there. I dislike Singapore pace of life okay hahaha I think I will move away from this place in the future. Who knows.
