As people plan their holidays and honeymoons in South Africa and look forward to the country hosting the Fifa World Cup in 2010, SouthAfrica.info has answered some of the frequently asked questions (FAQs) about the event.
Firstly, the site answered the question of whether South Africa has hosted major events before – pointing out that the 1995 rugby World Cup, the 2003 cricket World Cup and the Women's World Cup of Golf (2005-08) were all held in South Africa.
This experience is set to enable South Africa to put on a memorable World Cup, a competition which became the most extensively viewed event in television history when it was held in Germany in 2006.
SouthAfrica.info answered queries about the name of its national football side – Bafana Bafana, which means 'the boys, the boys'.
The information service also gave the definition of the word 'vuvuzela', which is a large plastic trumpet blown enthusiastically by fans at all football matches, something that people on holidays and honeymoons in South Africa are sure to hear in 2010.
People on South Africa holidays for the World Cup will visit nine cities, including Cape Town, Johannesburg, Durban, Port Elizabeth and Pretoria.
