Paris, France

Saturday: Left London early this morning for France we took ferry from = Dover, so we got to see the white cliffs and take some nice pictures. We = landed Calais which is very much a huge industrial area, but once we moved = away from the shore into the French counrty side things became.

London Sightseeing

It was up and early on Friday morning, but we still missed the bus we = needed to take. Fotunatly we managed to catch another one and made our way = to russell square to check in our luggage at the hotel. It was the off to = Picadili Circus to star our red bus.

Blue Men

We went to see Blue Man Group this evening. The seats were a bit of a = surprise, front row. What was disturbing however was that the 5 rows of = seats closest to the front all came with disposable rain coats! The show was amazing. It consisted of 3 blue men performing pecussion music.

London

Just arrived in Gatwick airport. Customs and baggage retrieval was quick = and painless. We are now waiting for a friend to pick us up and after a = quick stop at his place we will be doing the red bus tour.

Flight delay

After waiting 30min to board our flight to London we were looking forward = to some sleep. Unfortunatly 10min into take off we hit some turbulance. = There was a loud bump and suddenly the oxegen masks deployed. After a = collective gasp of silence from the whole plane, the flight attendent asked = people.

Doha

We are now sitting in Doha airport waiting for our connecting flight to London. I am very impressed with Qatar Airways, the food was actually nice and the selection of in-flight entertainment was decent. It took us almost 12 hours to get her from Cape Town including a 45min stop in Johannesburg. The next flight.

First Flight

We are now sitting in international departures awaiting our boarding call. Our respective families came over last night for drinks and snacks. Afterwards we sorted out some last minute items in the flat and went to Rob and Henriette were we spent the night. It was up bright and early to get to the airport..
