The trip from Zeerust via Rustenburg, Pretoria to Johannesburg was fine. But on Johannesburg Station I wait for 7.5 hours for the bus on the bus Malelaan/Maphuto to stop at Middelburg to drop me of. The bus left yesterday morning at Zeerust at 09h15. It was at Johannesburg station at 13h35. We left last night at 21h20 from Johannesburg station. And the driver was not friendly, he got a problem with me when he dropped me off and I did not know where they put in my luggage.
