Today my whole family sat that the edges of the our seats cheering Ghana on in their match against the USA hoping that an African team would make it into the quarter finals. It was a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[LMR Lodge is offering extremely competitive rates.  A dorm room during the World Cup will cost R195 per person per night. A twin room, with an en-suite will cost R295 per person per night during the 2010 soccer world cup. This is extremely affordable - the cheapest I have seen in Cape Town for the World Cup period. The website is www.lmrlodge.co.za. 

So it does seem like it is possible to get relatively affordable accommodation and airfare in South Africa
