The revolving restaurant
... ridden, Kylie got bitten 4 times on one foot. We decided to make the best of it, things could only get better! That night we booked a table at Rome Revolving Restuarant at 6pm so we could see the sunset. The views were awesome, you could see the harbour, golden mile beach, Durban city and out to sea.
