Travelling to Southampton for South Africa vs. West Indies

Good morning, it’s the evening of the South Africa and West indies match and if you are someone who watched the match, you know how that went, but we’ll touch on that in a little bit. Let’s start with the beginning of this trip, as it started in Bath and we planned a full trip to come and see the match. Now, I’ll be very clear that I have no interest in Cricket, I just came because my family was very adamant about it and wanted to all go together on some sort of family/friends trip to this match. If you want to know, they are avid fans of South Africa, given obvious reasons that my Dad is South African. Now, we decided to take the trip, gathered everyone that was free to go and the management fell on my shoulders because I’m the eldest and that’s apparently how it works, I had to contact the hotels to the Minibus hire to Southampton.

Now, this may seem easy and to be very honest, it did until I read a few articles on the matter of arranging Trips and weirdly enough there are too many trips that are based on the transportation methods instead of the destinations. Although, after putting this trip together, I kind of understand why that is the main thing that is talked about, it is so hard to find a good deal in the sea of companies ready to provide service! Our Minibus hire for Southampton was not the problem alone, I wanted to get a company that worked in Southampton locally as well so we could travel there as well and incorporate that into a discount or something as one of the articles had told me to do with the Transportation and the Accommodations. So, almost two days were spent calling up different Minibus companies and different hotels until I landed on Hire Minibus Now UK. Yeah, Cliché name but anyway, the hotel was Mayview Guest House.

So, I arrange everything and the Minibus hire for Southampton arrived around half an hour earlier, which gave us time to load everything peacefully and get saddled in. We got to Southampton in about an hour or so, the traffic was a bit much but that maybe due to the game as if was a little after we arrived. We went to the hotel and changed quickly, went to the stadium and stood in an enormous line, didn’t know cricket had so many fans, got into the stadium and just a little way into the match, everyone was enjoying it. I didn’t understand it but I was happy when everyone on my side of the stadium was happy, the match stopped in the middle however, because it rained!! The match got cancelled!! I am honestly quite angry at the rain, like out of all days, it picked today. However, we’re right now at Mayview and going to wait for tomorrow to see the match if it works and I contacted Minibus hire now UK and they moved my minibus hire booking for tomorrow, however I’m still angry at the weather.
