I'm heading out on June 14th to catch a game (Ned v Den) and then have 10 days to chill and take it all in, I'm trying to go to Durban to catch a gam,e and chill on the beach, but I don't know yet

also, I'm going by myself!!, I will link up with a buddy from Dubai in Johannesburg but I'm pretty much freelancing everything

anyone else going and if so where are you going to be, from when, and waht games are you watching

How much is this all costing you. If there are tickets still available I might have a summer vacation planned. They haven't sold out yet I think.

15 straight flight to J'burg is going to murder me

this will probably be the only tiem in our lifetime that a World Cup will be in Africa...I couldn't miss this opportunity, Brazil is gonna be sick no doubt but thats still 4 loooong years away

S. Africa is a cool country.  I went there this past December for a convention and we had a ball. If you get a chance, try and book a Safari.  We stayed at the Mabula Game lodge for 3 days 3 nights and saw everything.  We drove past the Stadium where the World Cup will be played and it was
