I was on the Gautrain by 8:30 and on my way back to the airport. My flight to Durban was at 10:00. Once again I booked a window seat and spent the entire 50 minutes watching the earth go by below. I was met at the airport by a friend who took me to work where I'd left my car for easy access.
Later in the afternoon I went to Ally's Cattery to collect the kittens and Old Aunty Cat who I noticed when I got her home was hobbling around again, her back legs hurting from the arthritis she has. I made her as comfortable as possible and constructed some makeshift steps inside and outside her room window so she could get in and out, as she likes to go out on her own.

The kitties were a little timid at first, but soon got re-orientated at home and settled down. The next morning I got some medication from the vet for Aunty Cat and within 2 days she was walking a lot easier. After a few days at home I've noticed the kitties are more relaxed. I am still on leave for the week so we could all be together and I could acclimatise before I went back to work.
It was a wonderful holiday, and I enjoyed myself immensely as usual.
Thank you Bruce, Glynis, Brad and Mark for a lovely time and fantastic memories. Luckily those memories will be here to look back on.
Before I left Canada, plans were already afoot for a visit to South Africa and for my return visit to Canada when I have retired... and that's a promise!
