Well, we crossed the Prime Meridian last night, so are now in the eastern hemisphere, and almost to South Africa! We arrive in a couple hours. We had the opportunity to hear Archbishop Desmond Tutu speak several times this week, and I even had breakfast with him Thursday morning. He is truly an amazing man, and the entire shipboard community has fallen in love with him. He’s so young at heart and so energetic you can’t help but smile when you see him.
There was so much energy all around the ship last night. A couple of us slept out on the deck last night so we would be up to see us pull into Cape Town. We have been told this may be the most beautiful port we come into, and we don’t want to miss it. So now we’re up and waiting for the sun to rise! I have a ton planned for the week, and am so excited to arrive!
