On our journey home we elected to kill some of the seven hours of layover we had in Johannesburg at the nearest bit of entertainment to the airport. This happened to be the Emperor’s Palace, which happens to be a Ceasar’s Palace but with a different name. This is your typical hotel/casino/shopping mall with the indoor roller coaster, the take the elevator up to the plane crash that’s somehow embedded in the ceiling to get to the exclusive nightclub, the fullscale reproduction of Michaelangelo’s David in the indoor european square with sky painted on the ceiling, and the every kind of noise coming from every direction, the cling-cling, bling-bling, aieeeigh!.. And needless to say, we experienced a bit of cultureshock entering this world, after spending two weeks in the bush.
