I sleep only two hours in Ustka after the car event. At 8 am I go live on a radio. Then, I borrow my friend’s car and I go to do a few things – an interview for a TV station for a radio station, a meeting, another meeting, preparing some materials for tomorrow’s meeting... I am home at 9 pm, and I’m exhausted. Still, I have a few more things to do – wash my shirt, pack some things, send some materials, call a few people... thank God my Mom is there to help me!
Packing, meetings, interviews, all kinds of business, trips and all other activities consume my time –again, I am at home literally only for a moment... A million things to do and I can’t even find time to deal with them – I need to pack up before the departure (and I have not yet fully unpacked after coming home from Cape Town). My TO-DO list grows instead of shrinking.
My Mom drives me to the Gdańsk airport early in the morning, but we have to stop in Gdynia. Although we put off the live show on TV and on the radio to some other time, we still have to do some “Coming up soon” material for television, some shopping for my friends in Africa, a bit of this and a bit of that... and I am totally exhausted when we get to the airport and I can’t move...

I sleep on a plane, even meals cannot wake me up. Once all the passengers left the plane and I did not notice... not mentioning stopovers which I simply not recall...
I am back to Cape Town, welcomed by the sun and 30 degrees heat. Have I been to Poland at all? Time spent at home passed so fast that I did not even have time for a cup of tea with my Mom... I came back to the Republic of South Africa unconscious from fatigue...
I gave Polish sweets to befriended employees from the Royal Cape Club – they must have been long in the sun for they were totally melted :)
I was so tired when I finally came to the yacht that even carrying my computer posed a challenge. The yacht, however, was waiting there for me clean and fresh – I have even found a note saying that I can have my yacht’s bottom cleaned :) For free! And before I went to take a shower, I found... a cold drink waiting for me on the deck... They care for me and for my yacht here. Thank all of you guys!!!
I do not know if I can describe to you what I feel standing here barefoot, on a wooden plank next to Tanasza, staring at the Table Mountain through a prism of masts in the marina... I feel happiness, peace... and a bit of uneasiness before the next stage – the unknown... Still, there is more happiness in me: I am here, the Indian Ocean behind me, unbelievable – I can’t believe it myself!!! 
Poland seems so remote now... It’s all like a dream: Ustka, Poznań, Warszawa, Szczecin, Gdańsk... the roads partially covered with snow, traffic enforcement cameras around every second corner, and this terrible cold...
I want to thank all of you for your help during my stay in Poland – Olga, for the best breakfast waffle ever; Mariusz, for your car; Tomasz Rubaj’s Film Studio, for professional and fast service (my sincerest recommendation here!).
My Mom, for her patience and unconditional help; my sister, for so much that I can’t even write about it.
I hope all my friends will forgive me that I had no time to meet them all.

Today, I managed to take a bath, download materials to my PC, and now I am falling asleep... still working though... working... (snoring)
