    The Sport's Centre is quite nice. The Spanish team stayed there during the World Cup. And an airport was built for them. They complained that the poor road conditions- I guess from Johannesburg to Potch was ruining their bus.

      The roads weren’t great, but nothing worse than here in KZN 😅🙈
