Woke up still disappointed from the result of last night and also wondering if Nick and Raphael got back to Jo'Burg ok. We still can't believe that goal. It was like watching something in slow motion.It seems as if all Capello's gambles aren't paying off.Still, enough of that. Gotta think positive.
Today we went to the SA Lion Park. This place should be about 26 minutes from where we are staying, but true to form we got lost and it ended up taking us nearly an hour. Due to our lack of navigation skills we missed the 11.30 tour we had been booked on but fortunately we were rescheduled for the 1.30 trip.In the mean time we took the opportunity to go in the lion cub enclosure and also feed the giraffes and ostrich's. Back to our childhood. On the Tour we were advised to stay within the safari vehicle as visitors had previously made the mistake of getting out and have been attacked and killed by the lions.
In the evening we got lost again trying to find a reccommended restaurant. Getting lost at night isn't something you want to do in SA, especially the Jo'Burg area. So enough
is enough Roger has downloaded GPS to his IPhone so we should be ok now.
Decided we will go into Jo'Burg centre tomorrow, to have a look around and also try to buy some tickets for the Denmark Holland match.
Text Nick and found out that they got a lift back to Jo'Burg with a coach load of Americans. The journey took them 4 hours and they had to listen to the Americans all the way. See you in Cape Town boys.

Dumb and Dumber
Loving reading your blogs and as I am a blogger-virgin, am feeling very proud of myself. Fab pictures etc - none of you with a vuvuzeller tho no doubt you have bought one. Looked out for you during the match - perhaps it would help you to stand out more if you wore a red and white T-shirt. Hope the lads pick up for the next match. Lots of jokes about Rob Green doing the circuit here. All the best to D and D, aka Wendy and Ray <3 from Lisa xx
