Summer is fading and we're waving goodbye to Blighty for a few weeks, heading tonight to southern Africa. A week in Rwanda, two in South Africa (during which - recent army coup permitting - hopefully we'll drive through Lesotho down to Durban, northwards along the eastern coast, and back to Johannesburg), and then just shy of a month in Namibia.
We're lucky that cousin Drew is moving to a new job in London just as we leave, and he will be house-sitting for us while he looks for a permanent place to lay his head.
So ... tonight we catch a South African Airways flight into Joburg, then we need to do a super-fast run between terminals to hop 3 hours north to Kigali. The hotel is supposed to be sending a car to collect us, so, this time tomorrow (Tuesday) we should hopefully be mooching around, sampling locally-grown Rwandan coffee and getting our bearings in downtown Kigali...
