Well my faithful readers- the time has come. I've said goodbye to Elsha already and a few hours ago I helped to send Sydney and Diane to the airport.
I made some soup to share with my friends here- everyone likes comfort food, right?
Cape Town has treated us so well today and yesterday. Where as the previous month and a half has been littered with cloudy days and lots of rainfall, the past two days have been nothing but upper 60s and lots of sunshine. What a beautiful way to end the trip.
Today I had the good fortune of stumbling upon a quote that sums up how I'm feeling today:
"How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard."
Leaving feels so strange. I miss my family, friends, and dog and I look forward to seeing them, but I am sad that I won't have the opportunity to return to my life here in Cape Town. I love the people that I have surrounded myself with and the fun things that we occupy our time with.
I feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to experience this place and all it has to offer. Each day had its ups and downs, but overall it was more than I could have hoped for. And I count myself lucky to have met a group of wonderful people who I hope to see sooner rather than later.
That's all from Cape Town, folks.
I'm off to experience another adventure.
Be safe,
B.
