Farewell Capetown

Monday, April 10
We went for a walk in downtown Capetown to have one last look at possible souvenirs, but nothing of interest for the boys was found.  It was then a trip out to the airport to drop Nancy off for her flight back home.  How quickly six weeks went with having her as our travel companion.  Her backpack was considerably heavier as we had her loaded down with stone carvings to take home.

Now we are off for our flight to Johannesburg.  We land mid afternoon, pick up our CRV and head to our accommodation.  After seven weeks of training myself that the signal indicator is on the right side of the steering column (and avoiding the wipers coming on every time I go to turn), the CRV has the blinkers on the left side.  Back to the retraining.  Turns resulted in both front and back wipers going on today.  Our accommodation is nice, but the neighborhood is awesome.  No evening walks here.  And driving... here you truly must look both ways at green lights, as in the five minutes of driving in this area it is clear that running a red five seconds after the conversion is acceptable.  I am alright with this practice, but Cindy does not like my new driving style.
Our Capetown apartment, one last time.
