Team South Africa arrives back home!

After a few last minute delays a tired but happy Team South Africa arrived back home yesterday, landing at ORTIA around 10.30am.

The eight hour charter flight also brought back the teams from Zimbabwe, Swaziland and Mozambique.

A spontaneous cheer went up inside the aircraft when it touched down, indicating that while the team enjoyed the competition in Algiers, they were very glad to be back home.

"I'm looking forward to a big mug of coffee," one team manager said, while another was looking forward to a cold beer. Coffee is only served in small espresso cups in Algeria, while beers are virtually unobtainable.
