Landed at the Johannesburg Airport after 15-hour flight from Newark, New Jersey. This followed a three-hour layover after a five-hour flight from San Francisco. All in all, we left home at 5:30am on Monday and got into Johannesburg at 6pm on Tuesday.
This Pre-Trip is quite full of the OAT Core travelers, and some of us are organizing a day trip to Sowetto to visit Nelson Mandela's home tomorrow morning after breakfast. We spotted each other in the Newark Airport, all sporting traditional safari gear, and carrying that older, weathered traveler look. The pack we formed going through customs and to the luggage carousel was familiar - as we began to learn each other's names and assist each other's movement. Our OAT tour staff met us with their bus, and drove us to the ANEW Hotel just outside of Pretoria.
