Out of the Snow and into the Heat

Picture_4

 

Well, I’ve had a few text messages from Susan and it seems that she and Dad (Dave/Davie) have survived the 17-18 hour trip to South Africa. Apparently they stopped in Dakar late Saturday night (US east coast time) to refuel … the plane and, hopefully, the passengers.

The plan was to spend the night in Johannesburg with Lindsay and his son Dave. Today they’ll travel 547 km (340 miles) south to Lindsay and Angela’s home in Kloof, just outside Durban. 

Today’s temperature in Kloof is 82 degrees, with a “real feel” of 91 — a  far cry from the “real feel” of 30 in Swedesboro, NJ .

Will keep you posted.

    We’re in the mid 50s (I think that’s about 13 celcius?) here in Atlanta today. I’d go outside but my allergies are driving me insane and I think every single plant out there has decided it’s spring! Fine with me. Even as short as our winters are down here, I’m ready for some warmer weather. 116 days till the beach! ;0)
