On the contrary. The time was short but seeing, doing and experiencing, it was a fact!<\/p>\n<p>\n  First of all, an overwhelming experience; board the largest passenger jet, the Airbus A380-800. &nbsp; Arriving in Jozi I travelled to the city with the Gautrain, a very relaxed way of travelling without traffic jams. Then made a city walk (Newtown) and been at the house of Nelson Mandela where he died. &nbsp; Had lunch in new indoor marketplaces in Ferreistown &amp; Braamfontein and tasted the nightlife of Maboneng Precinct. And get on the bike for the monthly &#8216;Critical Mass Bike Ride&#8217;, an event where you ride the streets of Johannesburg with the locals.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"org__item_img\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/original-300.jpg\" class=\"org_img_item\">\n              <\/div>\n<div class=\"org__item_img\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/original-301.jpg\" class=\"org_img_item\">\n              <\/div>\n<div class=\"org__item_text\">\n<p>\n  Visited the Apartheid Museum, Contitution Hill, Cradle of Humankind and the Maropeng visitor centre. &nbsp; In Soweto to a cup of tea with cookies with a host family.
