We finally did it! My husband and I traveled to South Africa to see our daughter who is in the Peace Corps in a village called Makotse (north of Pretoria and Jo-burg). When she went to South Africa the summer (OUR summer) of 2007, we started wondering if we could make the trip. We finally decided that since she had foisted her two cats, Cheza and Aluna, off on us, it seemed only fair that we dump them on someone else, if only for a short time.
We wrangled time off from our two jobs from February 14 to March 6, 2009, and started a 20-hour trip (that's just one way!) to a country we'd never dreamed of visiting. Since travel, even internationally, is pretty ho-hum these days, I won't go into a lot of detail about luggage, being cramped in economy seats, which is the best airline, and dropping my suitcase in order to hug a loved one, but I will get some pictures uploaded (be patient; we had some problems with our camera) and share some traveling experiences to a different country. Who knows -- there may even be some helpful tips.
