Although, towards the end, we didn't know where we were going, we were on foreign land and confused. We were told that the people who handled our tickets sent us to the wrong bus. This bus was going to Durban but we were supposed to be dropped off in Ladysmith and this bus was not going to our destination but rather used a completely different route. We had to go with to Pietermaritzburg which was 2 hours away from our destination. When we got to Pietermaritzburg, thankfully an intercape shuttle was organised to take us to Ladysmith. I'm thankful for that, however it was an extra 4hrs was added to our trip and we were travelling with our 2 kids under 5 years old so you can imagine what we had to endure because they were crabby and uncomfortable. The ride was tedious. In addition, we were not allowed to use the toilets and there were people who used the toilets mainly for number 2 after we were told not use the toilets unless we stop, we were sitting closest to the door and the toilet so the stinch that came from it was revolting. We are still recovering from the long , uncomfortable bus ride. We just wanted to reach out destination.
