South Africa

Today I arrived in South Africa. The flight here was terrifying: there was a lot of turbulence, so the pilot told us we were going to fly at very low altitude... over some mountains.

Before leaving I was told (many times) that South Africa (particularly Johannesburg) is a dangerous place for a young white woman travelling on her own, but I've had no problems so far! 

My plans for the next couple of days are visiting the Cradle of Humankind, exploring the Sterkfontein caves, and enjoying having hot water again. But first... I need to sleep off Ghana and my flights.

P.s. Laura Homan has produced an absolutely adorable little man called Archie, and I'm only just able to resist the urge to buy him lots of different animal suits...
