Returning home….

We’ve been really quiet for some time now as we’ve been in South Africa visiting friends and family, and somehow, we dont seem to have had anything all the interesting to share… life in SA, while busy, isn’t unique.

We are however, preparing to return to Tristan next week and despite dreading the journey (I have a pathological fear of the boat trip), I am looking forward to returning ‘home’ and to seeing all our friends on the island.  We’ve been really lucky in that we’ve had a couple of visitors while we’ve been in Cape Town, and have kept up with the happenings on the island through phone calls and emails but it will be lovely to be there ourselves!  I’m very sad to be leaving SA, but really pleased to be going back to Tristan – isn’t life full of contradications???
