Day 60 to Day 64: 13/06/2011 to 17/06/2011 - Johannesburg (Mel)

My time back home was wonderful and hectic – it passed in a blur of catching up with friends and family. It was awesome to catch up with Ga, Kirst and Robs and I managed to spend some good quality time with them all. I had dinner with my Dad and Jean, unfortunately Gus and Jill (Graeme’s parents) were away in the Richtersveld (one of our favourite holiday destinations) but I chatted to them on the phone.

I don’t think I ate one meal at home; it was a whirlwind time of lunches, dinners and ‘wine time’ with my wonderful friends.

In between my socialising, I spent every possible minute with my new nephew, Luke and Julie and Adie. My kids and I are absolutely besotted with this perfect, well behaved and gorgeous little baby. The hardest thing about heading back north into Africa was to leave him.

Another highlight of my few days back home and one of the main reasons for returning was to attend Gareth’s graduation – he received a Grande Diploma, signed by Prue Leith and is now a qualified chef.
