We are home after 32 hours plus of flying and layover time. Because we got to use out Amex points for first class, the flights were not as bad as they could have been. We flew British Air on 747's with the layflat beds that they make up. We actually did get a bit of sleep from Joburg to London and a nap from Lond to Dallas. The only fought spot was in Dallas. There were so many international flights that landed at the same time, we stood in line for more than one hour just to get to the custom clearance spot. Luckily, we had a four hour flight layover so we didn't miss our plane but a lot of ours did.

The luggage from Luggage Free arrived yesterday so I'm up to my ears in unpacking. I haven't even got all my photo cards uploaded.

Hopefully, I'll get a review done and some pictures posted before the next trip!

We had such a great time with Helen, Jerry, Linda and Ron. All of the places we stayed were magnificent..I couldn't believe the the "next one" was as good or better than the one we were leaving. The game drives were great as well and we saw lots and lots of animals.
