The bus was late in the morning. It broke down and waited for more than an hour for it to be fixed. It was not clean, there were cockroaches everywhere. When we arrived in cape town the driver that took us in khayelitsha was drunk. He couldn't drive. He asked one of the passengers to drive for him and he slept all the way. His tire was very flat.
