We're Off!!

The friendly skies of South African Airways
We're off!!  Departing from Kansas City at 5:40 p.m., we are scheduled to make an hour stop at Washington Dulles and then arrive in London at 10:15 a.m.  We'll then hop a tube into the city and enjoy the sights of London while trying to stay awake and work on jet lag before boarding the plane for South Africa.  After spending two nights in super comfortable airplane seats :-) we'll arrive at 10:30 a.m. ready to stretch our legs and feel solid ground again.  Even though we spend time waiting in airports for connecting flights, we will be in transit about 34 hours from KC to Jo'burg.   If all goes as planned, we'll have time for a quick stop at the Lion Park in Jo'burg to pet the baby lions before catching our next flight to Livingstone, Zambia.  It takes a l-o-o-o-o-o-n-g time to get to Zambia!
