Well I have now left South Africa, again! In someways it was easier as I knew it was the right thing to do. It was still difficult leaving family and friends. Very difficuly leaving a newly formed beutifull and shiny relationship with the greatest woman in the world. There were also some interesting challenges.
The challanges.
Monday the 25th of Feb. I get robbed of $3000. So not much money to get settled when I get back.
Few days before that found out I did not get the new security clearance for my job in Vancouver. So can't have same job back.
Friday the 29th a few min before we had to leave for the airport, lightning strikes one of the palm trees in the back yard and two of them catch alight. Luckily it was raining hard and that combined with the hose pipe help extingwish the flames within 20 min or so. 15 min after they were out the fire dept showed up - thanks for the prompt responce.
On the way to the airpot a sub station got hit by lightning and the traffic lights went out and we got stuck in traffic for a bit.
At the aiport the boarding pass had the wrong gate printed on it. I found this out at the gate and then had to run across the whole airport to the proper gate. Then I found out the flight was delayed.
Landing in Vancouver after a tottal of 34 hours of travelling I had a hour long session with customs and immigration as there was a problem with my permant residant card. This was a long running problem and I feared I would not get back in. But I did.
Well I am now in Vancouver. WTF next!
