Another 48 Hours…….no not the movie

 

In less than 48 hours we will be in Cape Town.

We started today with a trip to the orthodontist for Cameron to have his retainers fitted.

Next stop was b’nticed coffee shop in Belconnen for take away coffee and muffins.

8.27 we were in the traffic and on our way to Sydney.

We arrived at Rydges World Square at 11.50

Check in was quick and our luggage was stored until the rooms were available.

Our granddaughter Brook and her family had arrived at the hotel a few minutes before us.

David had arranged for us to meet our son Nick(Brook’s father) who was preparing to drive home to Canberra.

Goodbyes over it is time to head back to the city for last minute shopping.

Driving past the airport we could show Brook and Cameron a plane similar to the one we will be flying in tomorrow.

Shopping done it was time to relax with drinks and nibbles in the Executive Lounge.

Thought the shopping was done but David & I walked down Liverpool St for a few things we had forgotten to buy.

8pm we enjoyed a meal in hotel restaurant and caught up with House Manager Ali.
