South Africa: Sunday and Monday

Sunday: On Sunday, I got up early to have a shower and finish packing. We had to check out by ten but our flight wasn't until after six so we went to a shopping centre for about four hours (11:30AM - 3:50PM). It was so fun...
At the airport, we got checked in and stuff. A few of the teachers from the schools we visited came along and I talked to a teacher whose Zulu class I sat in. She complimented me on my singing and dancing (apparently, she saw me on Friday... Slightly embarrassing but she was very sweet). Then it was time to move on again so I had to say goodbye. Still on the plane while writing this so I can't say how it went. So far, I've fallen asleep watching 'Rebel Without A Cause' and now I'm watching 'Jailhouse Rock'. Guess I'm in a 'classic' mood. I liked the first one (at least until I fell asleep anyway) and I've got about an hour left of the second film but it's been really good so far.
Monday: 'Jailhouse Rock' was really good. I loved it!
After trying to get through all of 'Rebel Without A Cause' for a second time and failing (due to exhaustion taking over), I gave up and just slept on and off for a few hours. Tried watching 'Citizen Kane' but I couldn't make it through that either without falling asleep. When I woke up, I watched 'Pitch Perfect' and a bit of 'A Bug's Life'.
Soon though, it was time to get off the plane, find my suitcase and get on the coach to make the short journey back to Edinburgh from Glasgow airport. I began to feel worse and worse as the drive went on. It wasn't great. My sister phoned me and I could barely talk. When I got home, I went straight to bed. I can't remember much else.
