The First Word.

It has been a while getting confirmation that I'll actually be able to blog during our trip. More on that later if it turns out that it's interesting. But I', told that there are some facilities available everywhere that we'll be. So for now, here is the first word.

A little background, the basic itinerary. We leave on June 29th, fly to Atlanta, then to Dakar, then to Johannesburg. From there we take a charter to the Ngala game reserve for a few days. After that we go to Phinda game reserve. On July 8th, we fly from Phinda to "Jo-burg" where the group splits. Part of the group, including Amanda, returns to the states and Karylinn and I continue to Cape Town with a smaller part of the tour. After Cape Town, we fly Cape Town to Dakar, then to Atlanta, then home. Home happens on the 14th.


Cheers,
Patton

In the imortal words of John Denver, "Far Out". Can't wait to hear and see the journey! Best wishes for a completely uneventful flight.

Our family is currently devouring the "Planet Earth" series... please be careful and don't get eaten up by the wild life; Karylinn owes me a glass of wine! (Kay)

Can easily imagine that no postings yet means that the tech stuff is more complicated than you might have hoped, but this is a quick note to say that those of us in our "normal" everyday lives are keeping you in prayer and are also oh so curious...how's it GOING?
