Day 4 - It's Friday already...  Rebecca, Natalia and I headed out to the Mall for breakfast and to pick up a few items.  We really wanted to take a tour of Soweto, unfortunately the tours that were available had left for the day.  So we headed out to Gold Reef City which was described as a Town built on gold mining and highlighted the history of those that worked the mines......What we found a little of that and a lot more of something else.....

Gold Reef City is a Gold Mine.....no wait an amusement park......no wait a Casino......um a museum...... let's just say a bit of all of those things.  Where else can you play the slots, ride a coaster, tour turn of the century homes and go 255 meters below ground to tour a retired gold mine????  Why Gold Reef City!

After our exciting adventure,  we headed back to the hotel to meet the rest of our colleagues for the first time face to face.  It was so great!  I can't wait to get to know everyone better!



 Can you spot Rebecca and Natalia on the boat above???



 255 meters below ground and yes we saw gold.....

This is good old fashion family fun so if you're packing heat, leave it at the door!
