Insignia leaving Cape Town without us
Well, we have had another great high altitude adventure here in Cape Town, but as we write this, we are within a hour of leaving the Radisson Blu Hotel here and boarding the Rovos Rail train that we will be on for three days.
The picture at the beginning of this post is our ship Insignia sailing out of Cape Town without us. It was taken from our hotel room. It was a very strange feeling indeed watching our “home away from home” leaving without us.
Our internet usage will be severely curtailed as a result because there is no 110 Volt current available on the train for us to recharge our electronics.
We will be in Durban, South Africa on February 13th and will try (probably in vain) to catch up on our posting then.
Thank you for reading these posts. It means a lot to us to have a chance to share our journey with you and we are honored you are with using spirit along the way.

February 14, 2018Thanks, Eddie. We are back on the ship, safe and sound … and a few pounds heavier. We had a great time. Tons of eating and drinking at every meal. Will be writing about it soon.
