I have kept
a souvenir from South Africa ,
that I find so funny. It is a beer coaster from the hotel I stayed at in Johannesburg . Ok, it was
a cheap hotel by the airport where I only stayed for one night because the
transfer to Kruger left too early to make the arrival from Cape Town the same day, but still the text on
the coaster: “Free love on the weekend” makes you wonder what kind of hotel it
actually was. On the rim of the coaster you can read: “Book a room from Friday
to Sunday and qualify for our amazing Spouse-on-the-house rate”.
Have I
actually spent a night in a Love Hotel?!? Should I regret I was only there on a
Wednesday night? Maybe I would also have gotten a Spouse on the house if I had
been there on a weekend?!
