Our ultimate destination was Cape Town, South Africa. It is a long way from Houston. Our first flight was to Heathrow which was about 9 hours. Our second leg was from Heathrow to Cape Town, South Africa. It was almost twelve hours en route. We have decided to travel Business Class all the time. All the kids ae through college so we don't have to save up for that so we blow our fortune on plane tickets. Ginny is enjoying a class of champagne as we prepare to taxi out at Heathrow.
