Ready for take off

---

In an hour, we will be packing the taxi and heading off for the airport! Hopefully, all of our stuff will fit and none of us will need to walk to the airport! The cases have been packed and re-packed. All the weights have been checked and now we are filling the time! Some of us are doing the things we all do before a holiday! Have you got the passports? Who has the money? Did we pack ...? Is .. easy to get to! Suzy has disappeared to the allotment to pass some time and I have turned to the blog - after Rob pointed out that the original had a spelling mistake! Tim is juggling in the dining room with 18 suitcases and 6 rucksacks! Rob is pruning a bush after cutting the lawn! Having reminded members of the group that we are in for an 11 hour flight, we looked into what films we will be able to watch to keep us going as although we have an overnight flight, sleep is unlikely! We have studied the maps and between us (with a lot of hand gestures) finally worked out that where we need to get to is not printed! But, between us, we have recalled all the left and right turns that we need. So, as long as Siyabuswa has not changed the road layout, we should be just fine! The next time we write we will have landed and arrived in Siyabuswa. Speak to you all soon! Frances
