Howzit:
Oh my goodness, we're here but after all that sitting on the plane, my caboose was dead on arrival.
Met Suzie and Marilyn in Atlanta and true to their word, they had a pear, strawberries and an orange to ward off scurvy during the long trip. There were also a couple of frosted peanut butter bunnies. We indeed, gobble it down. Thanks, gals! By the way, they are a real "hoot" and we're looking forward to hangin with them during the next several weeks.
At the J'burg airport, we were befriended by an airline employee who wisked us thru immigration, took us to booth to get a South African simms card for my international phone and then transported our luggage across the airport. What a nice young man.
Bishop's Court, a BedNBreakfast place is superb. They have an inclusive bar which we promptly invaded and drank several bottles of lovely wine and phoned for a pizza delivery. I know, I know, pizza in SA? But it was luxurious with shrimp, smoked mozzarella on 1/2 and avacado, feta cheese and spinach, etc. on the other half. Best pizza we have had in a long time.
Bishop's Court's accommodations are just lovely. A 5-star BnB with the neat people. The owner is going to take us on a personal tour of places we won't be going on with Ngaire and they are going to prepare a special dinner for us tonight. I've tried phoning Suzie to see if she would like to join us but no answer in her room. The owner of the BnB said she would be most welcome on the tour.
For breakfast Penny had a full English breakfast and I had scrambled eggs with salmon. It was delicious. Just love this place and all the lovely vegetation.
Tonight Andrea and Doug will be here around 10PM and we're looking forward to seeing them again.
