Africa day 21

Our final day in South Africa!  We got up latish then packed our bags before having one last wander round the market.  Mick finally bought a souvenir - just wait for our next BBQ to see what!

We had a quick, but tasty lunch, in a bar called Tiger's Milk, then called for an Uber taxi to the airport.

I had made my classic mistake on flight times, so instead of getting there two hours before our flight, we were there four hours early.  Quite useful as Teri and I were both dashing for the toilet quite regularly by this point.

Eventually we got on our flight to Johannesburg, then effortlessly transferred onto the long flight back to London.  21 hours after leaving our Cape Town apartment we arrived in a cold and wet England and drove back to Derby.

It was an excellent holiday, largely thanks to Chris at Blue Rhino, and ably helped by our travelling companions, especially Ossie.  We really hope to visit South Africa again, and would do another driving safari in an instant.  Perhaps 2019 - we already seemed to be fully booked for the next two years.
