Back Home
Well, it’s been great, but time to go back home. We are not flying out until the middle of the night so time for one last day. We thought we’d better check if we had enough room in our cases or would we need to buy another one. It’s amazing how much shopping Maria has managed to do.
Luckily, with the weather being so nice, we had packed light, so there was enough room. John still had to go out and pick up the silk shirts he was having made, and of course once she’d seen there was a bit of space left, Maria decided she needed some more shopping. Apart from anything else Claire had decided she needed an elephant (honestly, just ‘cos I had one.)
We saw another of John’s famous scaffolds, This one made from METAL!!! Being used in a very safe manner.
We then packed and mooched around for a while. We decided to have our meal in Stir, outside under the palm trees. The meal was lovely, they made a special lamb curry for Maria, and we will miss all the different breads. Much as we have enjoyed the food here, it will be nice to have something other than a curry for a change.
The car picked us up in good time and we only had one near miss on the way to the airport. Now it’s just a long flight and then a short hop accross from Paris. We’re all looking forward to getting back home.
