I think we finally had some time for several realizations to set in:
1) We're in AFRICA!
2) Those rivers and the bush below us is truly AFRICA!
3) The gorgeous sun setting in the horizon turning the sky bright red is in AFRICA!
4) We are just two hours from the end of a continent that we never thought we'd ever visit!!
5) We are truly on our way to legendary Cape Town, South Africa!
When we arrived in Cape Town at about 8 p.m. we scooted through the airport, collected our bags, climbed aboard our buses, and headed for our hotel - all in the dark. We believe that Table Mountain is right outside the hotel room window, but it will be morning before we find out for sure.
What a trip!

ReplyDeleteI am so excited for you, mom! What an amazing trip you are on. You are making friends, sounds like, and enjoying yourself greatly. Who are the other P to P visitors?
ReplyDeleteAh, yes, SA wines a-plenty! But no time for any visits to wineries. Anyone want to come back sometime with me to do that?
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, I'm meeting some wonderful, very fun new friends from all over the U.S.!
