Getting To Johannesburg

For those that are curious, I am here safe and alive. I survived the two ten hours flights and one six hours lay-over. Right now I am extremely tired - since I really haven't slept much in over two days.

See, I left at about 6 Thursday night and we flew through the night to land in London the next day, 1:00 their time. My next flight left at seven in the evening and landed 6 in the morning in Jo-berg. I decided to deal with the time change, I was not going to sleep on the first flight to make myself so tired that I would sleep on the second flight, wake up when we arrived and therefore be on Jo-berg time very quickly. Well, in a sense it worked, I'm tired and I did manage to doze on and off for about six hours on the flight, but it wasn't very good sleep. So now I am waiting until this evening to fall asleep. Which is hard, I want to sleep.

So if we look at the clock, it should be Sat. at about 8am, I've had six hours of dozing since Thursday at 6:40am. But once I get a good night sleep, I'll be on Jo-berg time, um, starting tomorrow. Not bad for a 9 hour difference.
