All hung-over after a fine evening - pub, Greek restaurant in Hatfield, then Stardust Club! Last day spent seeing Melrose House in Pretoria (see pic. 1) - a Victorian home which saw the signing of the Peace of Vereeniging after the Anglo-Boer War.

On to Johannesburg for a look at Gold Reef City - a major tourist-trap let-down, but managed to cheer up to take the accompanying picture as we were leaving (pic. 2). Even beers in the sun in the restored mining village failed to resuscitate! Last stop Bruma Lake flea-market for last-minute shopping (Vicky tied down at the gate to prevent any further curio purchases!).

Coupla beers and snacks at a pub in Bruma before the tearful farewell at JHB International - all vowing to repeat the experience in 2001 - COAST TO COAST, it's been decided! (i.e. Cape Town, Namibia, through Bots and Zim., and ending up in Mozambique again - we're all so in love with that place!).

Last pic. of tour taken as we returned to Jo'burg from the airport - sundown over Sandton - an appropriate final pic. ?
