I have arrived simultaneously with 2011

I have arrived safe and sound back in Cape Town and have already made my new room “home”. No that does not mean all my clothes are scattered across the floor or still in suitcases. Just the opposite. All are nicely folded or hung. Pictures are also brightening up the place!

My desk could certainly use some organizing, but generally all is good. I have the house ready for student move in which is good because well they have already started to arrive.

Contrary to my expectations it is raining here and cool. I cannot say that I am too disappointed. As I hauled bags from my former address to my current residence, I got a glimpse of the brutal sun and after a month of shivering I have to admit I was a bit sweatsy…it takes a bit of adjustment.

Prior to semester preparations, and literally just after arriving, I was able to ring in 2011 with the appropriate glass of champagne atop Signal Hill. We were over looking the Waterfront and Cape Town Stadium as fireworks lit the night sky. It was then swiftly off to bed.

And that is the update for now. More to follow!
