Ahhhh Moomba, i totally agree with Bizi's comment. You are being such a tease with this one. I do love following people's RTW trips, the best sort of reports i think! Well that and Kiwiflyer's insane schedule of flying. The SAA flight is something i'm really looking forward to reading about.
From the sounds of it are you on two rtw's? Or a seperate award tkt? Obviosuly there is some form of *A rtw ticket, but a segment in CX F isn't going to be included!
Anyway, enjoy your flight out to Mauritius, hopefully your not going to endure the zoo that is LHR but i imagine you will have to.
I quite like embedded pics but you are right, viewing them whilst on a slow connection is a nightmare.
Good luck!
Chris
