South Africa: Day 1

Airbus A-380, the double decker of the planes. 

So we have a total of 11 hours of flying awaiting us. We arrive at the airport to see that we are flying with an impressive Airbus A-380, during night time, so even thought I don't really expect it, I hope to catch some sleep.
After an hour and a bit I notice that it's an useless attempt and end up watching Mad Max, a few chapters of the big bang theory and a few more shows and movies.

The first giraffes we found! 

We arrive at the airport at around 11 in the morning, but by the time we get out of there with the car and everything sorted it's 1:30 pm. We leave to the first lodges, where we have a little surprise waiting for us: Giraffes, 2 giraffes of 4-5 metres, incredible to view. We where super excited, only to find out later that they are quite common.





And to finish the day we get to the little resort, which was incredible, we found the people working there to be very lovely and kind, and even for a 4 star resort, the prices where more than reasonable, a fine dining restaurant (in the resort) with dinner and lots of drinks for not more than 25€ a head.
