We made it! Sorry that we’ve been delinquent bloggers this first week. We are adjusted to the new environment and time
zone, so we’re going to catch up in a hurry.
We’ll post new blog entries daily for the next few days.

Our
trip over to South Africa was pretty uneventful. We got some bad news in the Seattle airport
lounge. The wi-fi system didn’t work, so
we couldn’t watch the Super Bowl on the plane as we had hoped. We did get news of the final score. John got caught up on the details on espn.com
in the Frankfurt lounge.

One
funny thing happened in the airport bar during our 12-hour layover there. Three crazy Italians spilled beer and wine
all over each other and the clean glasses behind the bar, and they could not stop
laughing about it. Their silliness was
infectious. So much so, the bartender bought them all a shot. The woman spoke
animatedly to Sarah in Italian as if she knew what they were talking about. If only we had an Italian interpreter…..
Our
flight from Jo’Burg to Cape Town arrived on Tuesday PM, two days after we
left. We were picked up at the airport
and driven straight to our host family’s house.
It’s in a middle-class neighborhood, with a great long patio and nicely
manicured back yard. It is a really
comfortable place to hang out.
We
love our host family. We’ll tell you more
about them in the next blog entry.
