Durban skies unedited
We visited the Moses M. Stadium which looked very finely designed, while Soccer City Stadium was simply breathtaking! Managed to snap some photos of the MMS w/o the crowd and in broad daylight. Will probably TRY to do the same for SCS since we only caught a blurry pic of it on the 27th night :S. It is amazing what stadiums ZA has come up with for the WC. Why is SG taking so damn long to build 1 sports hub?
Victoria St Mkt was next. Imagine Little India or Pratunam Market.
Lunch was at Hungry Lions. Imagine KFC.

Popped by Musgrave Centre Shopping Centre. Free 1st 1.5hrs of parking, YAY! (because public transport is FREAKING EX here, therefore anything free wrt to transport deserves a YAY!) Anyway, this seemed to be the atas area of Durban. The houses around looked huge, and it is a shopping area frequented by more angmohs than the africans/indians. Far far cry from Victoria St Mkt.
Made our way to New Beach that overlooked the indian ocean for the fan fest and caught the 2nd half of the Paraguay - Jpn match. Jpn lost on the penalty shootout. Lovely place anyway!
Next, off to the Casino we went which was just about 500m from the beach. Played some roulette for the fun of it. Dinner was at John Dory's Fish & Grill. Pretty good food for 2 at $30. (2 mains, 1 pot of mussels, 1 bottle of beer). Spent 2 hrs there to watch the Spain - Portugal match 1-0
Back to Joburg tmr noon. Another 6hr drive :S
- shihui in rm 136
