During the course of the morning we kept an eye on the news but with all the UK airports still closed were sure that we would not be flying back home just yet. By lunch time we were informed that we would be staying in t the hotel for a second night so seven of us decoded to visit a shopping mall for some retail therapy. Nelson Mandela kindly welcomed us to the shopping mall and we were reminded that there was something special about football in the near future.
A wander around the hotel . . .
but I don't think we'll bother with the pool today
A very pleasant welcome to the Reception area . . .
and a variety of flowers . . .
to keep the camera busy
The front of the hotel . . .
looks like a huge mirror
Nelson Mandela . . .
is a big figure in South Africa . . .
and we are reminded of a particular football match
