live from PE, South Africa

Hi all

I arrived in Port Elizabeth yeasdterday after un uneventful flight via Jo'burg. I had the bike in a Cannondale cardboard box(they are the biggest and you leave the back wheel on) and my suitcase wrapped in selophane at Heathrow for 5 pounds each.
A porter offered to help with the bike at Jo'burg as the lift was out of order....hmmm...,it was but there are others and walkways to the other floors.
went for a 4-5 mile run yesterday to the bike shop then built the bike. Was in bed by 2100 and woke at 0700 to look out the window for the sun position and sea state then back to bed for another 2 1/2 hours
breakfast was adequate for under 2 pounds.

going for a lap of the bike this afternoon and a lap of the run.

Swimming in a group tomorrow morning
