Fifty years later…. By Nev.

Even tho we've been back to South Africa many times, this trip seemed so special due to the fact that it was fifty years ago that I left with my buddies.
From the moment we arrived everything has been wonderful
The Blue Train unexpectedly fantastic
The stop in Kimberly brought back memories of my army basic training done there
Cape Town never disappoints
Dinner with friends
Wine tasting
Even being dragged off to see the wild flowers up the west coast where Maggie still dreams of having a home...
I promise we didn't buy one!
Durban
It's changed tremendously but the friends there haven't
Great times with Brian and Lou
My goddaughter Debbie and family
Big thanks to Zona for getting us all connected
Highlight of golf with Greg and Mike at Durban Country Club - great times despite the weather!
And many stories to tell in between!
Great to travel to Dave and Maureen's new place in Oviston in the Eastern Cape
Lovely to see them relaxed and safe
To meet their friends
And so good to see how well Dave is doing
Maureen, in her true Miss Social Butterfly style, was able to tell us the names of everybody living in almost all the houses of the town!
She fed me all my favorite foods
And I loved seeing her taking such kind care of Dave
So looking forward to seeing her again in May when she comes to visit us.
