Finally arrived in Johannesburg, after almost a full day of flying. I left Seattle at 9:30am on 04-29-2025 and flew into Atlanta on a flight that was about 5 hours long. After getting off the plane, I was able to stretch my legs and find a bite to eat since I had a 4.5-hour layover. I then boarded my direct flight to Johannesburg and found out the flight was 14.5 hours and not the 11.5 hours I thought I’d read somewhere. It was a full flight, but everyone and everything was really nice onboard, so I settled in and read for a while, watched a couple of TV shows on the in-flight entertainment system, and even managed to nap for about 30 minutes on and off. Once getting off the plane in South Africa, I made my way to customs and immigration and was very pleasantly surprised to find a very short line waiting for me. I was through customs in about 10 minutes and then just waited on my bag, before making the short walk across the street to the hotel.
A few members from the group were already there and meeting for dinner so after I checked in and showered, I went downstairs to meet them and say hello. It was a very long day, so none of us stayed up late, and I headed to bed for much-needed sleep.
