7th Jan Departing London in the Ice

J and I began our journey to South Africa and it ends tomorrow in the sun of Johannesburg.

The trip to Heathrow was eventual - hours then to check in and the flight delays increased as the ice and snow gripped the airport.

An Iran Air aircraft slipped off our stand resulting in a 2 hour delay.

But the Virgin 747 800 series took off 2 hours later and I was bound for my first ever visit south of the Equator.
