The adventure begins

Well it's finally come - Boxing Day, the day it really begins. In about 3 hours time I will be setting off for the airport and a very long flight to Cape Town - I will arrive in about 20 hours time. The bag is packed although I couldn't make it in the baggage allowance so BA will be making a bit out of me today for excess baggage. As theirs is a flat fee for any amount of excess I have ended up taking a bit more than I would have - may as well get my money's worth!

Yesterday was a very low key affair - so low you wouldn't have known it was Christmas Day in our house. I did washing and ironing and various other domestic chores so just like any other day really. I did speak to all of my family though so have said my goodbyes. Just in time to need it most I dunked my mobile in the loo a couple of days ago so it's not very well. I have dried it out and it will work but it is a bit temperamental now. Hope it lasts until I get to New Zealand then I can get a new one with local pay as you go.

Will post more regularly after today and add some photos too - maybe even video if I can work that one out!
