The traveler must see the journey as not merely a road to the end but worthy in its self. This sounds less appealing after spending the last two nights in the air, rather then in a bed, even I am not looking froward to more plane travel and that in its self is a new experience. Ah, but weren't we supposed to spend the night in Atlanta? No, as it terns out we were not supposed to, yet we did anyway, by the way the cheapest hotel in Atlanta is cheep for a good reason.

But now we are finally here. Coming in over the Atlantic, the east Atlantic my first views of Africa are dark, a few lights below, but the excitement is clear. One more short nine and a half hour lag and we set down in South Africa, and now the journey begins.
