I finally get access to the internet and it's a mere few days until Mum and I fly off to China! So here is a brief rundown of what has happened since I last updated my blog...
On the Monday we drove to the Garden Route Game Farm where we stayed for two days and enjoyed the wildlife, then on to Knysna and the Knysna Elephant Park where we got to feed the Ellies.
Cathy came to visit me and we took in the sites and sounds of the Cape and the Garden Route! These included: Driving around Cape Point, having lunch at the Codfather (those who know it will appreciate what a treat it was)! We went to Franschhoek, we visited a wine and cheese farm and ate the most delicious curry and that was just the weekend.

After Cathy left things quietened down a bit and I went to Home Affairs to renew my passport (which had just expired). This is when I got the bad news that I would be stopped at Customs and would not be allowed to leave on my British Passport. This resulted in many panicked trips to Home Affairs in Caledon to obtain a Temporary Passport which thank my lucky stars came through on Friday.
And here we are, Monday, 12 May and we leave at noon on Friday, 16 May!
I would have put some photo's in my blog but my Mac and I are having a difference of opinion!
I hope to update you all when I arrive in Thailand when I have a little more time as the China tour is going to be non-stop. Till then...
