We have arrived in Africa after a long 15 hour flight from JFK in New York. We have a layover in Johannesburg, South Africa for about three hours and then a short 2 hour flight to Lusaka, Zambia. When we got off the plane here in Johannesburg, it was only 42F at 8:00AM. Back home we are just entering into the summer months, but since Africa is in the Southern Hemisphere they are the complete opposite and are beginning their winter months. At night we will probably see temperatures as low as 30F and in the day as high as 85F.
Daniel and I are supposed to take off to Zambia in about two hours, where we will begin our trip. Tonight we are going to stay on our own, as we will not be able to meet up with our tour group till Wednesday afternoon. We are staying at a camp ground just south of Lusaka called “Eureka Camping Park”. I was able to find a link online that has some pictures (http://eurekacamp.com). Hopefully it will be a decent place!
