POM POM, SPACE, ANIMALS AND THE FALLS
22 and 23/10/2012 This was a trip which I had been looking forward to for donkey's years. A Safari in Botswana and then a visit to Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe. Pierrette and I would be in three countries over ten days, starting off in Johannesburg in South Africa. The excitement had been building since we booked earlier this year. In my usual way, I was at the airport with bags of time to spare and would fly to Heathrow, join Pierrette and off we'd go. The trip started out by being a catastrophe. It seemed that e-tickets could mean "0n a waiting list " for flights. As it happened the plane was also delayed for London. I finally got to Terminal 5 in Heathrow, after a philosophical rush. I have already had two Safaris cancelled in the past, so a third? Pierrette was waiting for me. Passengers were boarding the aircraft as I arrived. The trip was without incident. Arriving there were a few more hicks but we finally got to our hotel. Lunch with plan
