First the bus came more than 30 min late then we only left Oudtshoorn at 19:00. The worst of all is the bus, broke down more than a 100km before Beaufort. We had to wait for the mechanic, who couldn’t fix the problem and the closet bus was coming from Cape Town. I decided to drive with my parent to Potchefstroom.
