International Travel, Things You Should Know

Herewith, my Hits & Misses from the recent vacation in Africa (in no particular order) … Hit: South African Airways — excellent planes; on-time flights; lovely staff; no baggage issues.

The lead-up and anticipation prior to a safari is exciting and filled with anticipation. One can look online and talk to friends who have been; experiencing it first-hand is an entirely different story.
