Finally back in Cape Town! It took me 10 years to do it. When I left CT back in ‘99 I had set my goals to be back within 5 years (that’s when my South Africa drivers licence would expire). But that doesn’t matter now. The importent thing is that I’m here!
I left Malmö C yesterday at 14:02 and arrived at Heathrow at 18. Had some dinner at Wagamama and bordered the 747 to Cape Town. After some 5 beers, a second air-plane-dinner, the movie Moon and an episode of The new old Christine, I was ready to get some sleep. Unfortunately for me, some people had gathered by the toilets and were having loud discussions. But finally I managed to get three hours of sleep or so.
Waking up I had a cloud-free view over Namibia, beautiful. After landing, waiting for 500 people to get off (I was in the far back), migration, baggage claim and customs I entered South Africa again!
So now here I am, dead tired, waiting for my love to show her pretty face. I can’t wait!! I guess I’ll be crashing once at our hotel.
That’s it for now. Now I’m going to try to see if I can take a nap here, in the pretty noise domestic arrivals hall, at Cape Town International Airport.
