Blog 2: My best vacation ever!

My best vacation ever took place in southern Africa in the summer of 2018. I went with my cousins Juan de Dios and Nicolás and visited a lot of cities, historic places and saw a lot of wild animals too!

We first arrived to Johannesburg and immediately rented a car, and then for about one entire month we went from one city to another, it was so much fun! We went to the Apartheid Museum, to the Kruger National Park and saw all the big five (lion, leopard, elephant, rhino and buffalo), which is a very hard thing to do; visited Nelson Mandela’s house in Soweto and Robben Island, where he was imprisoned for 18 years. We also did shark cage diving, which is one of the most thrilling things I’ve ever done in my life, the shark got to be too close to the cage! The last thing we did before coming back was going to Ultra Music Festival in Cape town, literally hours before taking the plane back to Chile! I had a really good time despite I didn’t like that kind of music then.

We also went to Botswana, Mozambique, Lesotho and Swaziland, which are South Africa’s neighboring countries. I will always remember this vacation as the most crazy I’ve ever had.
