Zodiak - ELEVEN days I have struggled in Johannesburg. Yesterday (16 / 6), I had the opportunity trying out a new field. I will go to Durban to watch the Spain vs. Switzerland clashed at the Stadium Durban (Moses Mabhida Stadium). Five hours before kickoff, I was starting from Airport Reginald Oliver (OR) Tambo in Johannesburg towards the King Shaka Airport in Durban.
Since only two-day stay in Durban, I feel just need to bring one bag. That is, it is very hard, because in addition to laptops and cameras, also contain thick clothing, especially jackets. Yes, referring to programs at the local television weather forecasts, weather in Durban is predicted to be very cold. Namely, ten degrees Celsius or four dejarat Celsius cooler than the previous day (15 / 6).
Since early this week, the weather in Johannesburg is very cold and accompanied by gusts of wind. Just daytime temperatures are in the range of five degrees Celsius. In the morning? Can be zero degrees Celsius. Not to mention in Cape Town that some of the region was covered with snow.
From the weather forecasts on television, in Durban at the same time would be predicted rain. Therefore, in addition prepare some thick clothes and warm, I bought a scarf and gloves as a precaution.
Indonesian journalist friend who went with even wear quadruplicate. From t-shirts, sweaters, jackets always, then outermost jacket wrapped in foam. He dressed like that for fear of going to hospital, given the task of South Africa (South Africa) is still to mid next month.
Double-double with clothing, was not surprised when my friend and I often become the object of sight of other passengers from the OR Tambo up in the South African Airways plane that became the only airline in the country's Nelson Mandela.
If observed carefully, as passengers unless we were wearing clothes that spelled "normal." In other words, they do not wear clothing or a thick jacket. Couple Australian citizen who was sitting next to me also a little smile-smile with clothing worn by me and my friend.
When I asked them to Durban goal, they say want to sunbathe and cycling near the coast. "Huh ... bask in Durban? In cold weather like this? What is not wrong is he?" so that came to my mind when talking to him. During the flight, I still feel the cold penetrating the bone. When the stewardess offered any drinks with ice, I'm not interested.
But, when the plane would land in King Shaka or after an hour, I was surprised when I saw the view from the window plane. The weather was very light, with no signs of cloudy and even rainy. I just realized when an officer in King Shaka insinuating the toilet, "you're still cold, sir? Oh, you must get out!"
Yeah, right. When out of the door of the airport, I was surprised because my skin felt stung by the heat of the sun. I also feel the sweat start to appear on the palms. Conditions that previously I do not find in Johannesburg. At that time, the clock showed 13:15 pm local time.
The words "Welcome to Durban, City Best Hot in South Africa" at the airport exit is indeed true. A parking attendant King Shaka as if reminded, by mentioning that the weather forecast is only human creations. Well ... name only predictions. Could be true, but not rare fumble.
