Thornybush Part 2 | Notes from the Brown Bag
https://notesfromthebrownbag.com/2014/07/19/thornybush-part-2
Notes from the Brown Bag. July 19, 2014. I’m back on US soil, sitting in the Atlanta airport after the 16 hour flight from Joburg. We have 2 hours until our flight to Dayton and free WIFI, so time to catch up on blogging. We’ve had internet the past few days, but it has been so limited that we focused on using it to Facetime the kids and post a quick Facebook or Instagram photo. Our remaining time at Thornybush was just as wonderful as our first day. Another morning, we tracked the elephants on the South...

An Assignment to Africa: Out of Africa
http://insouthernafrica.blogspot.com/2014/08/out-of-africa.html
An Assignment to Africa. Tuesday, July 29, 2014. This is the last day in Johannesburg, we are heading back home in the evening. We used the day to visit Lion Park, basically a zoo, near Jo'burg, to cuddle lion cubs. It was strange to see animals caged, after so many visits to parks where they are free roaming. Lion cubs were very cute! We saw rare white lions. We used the last few hours in South Africa to head towards Pretoria. Our way there led us next to a shantytown. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

An Assignment to Africa: In Zambia
http://insouthernafrica.blogspot.com/2014/07/in-zambia.html
An Assignment to Africa. Monday, July 28, 2014. We crossed the border to Zambia, and arrived in Livingstone on Sunday evening, being very tired after the rafting trip. We had a delicious meal of Kenyan-style T bone steak and Zambian goat in Cafe Zambezi. In the afternoon, we were flying to Johannesburg. Still, there was a bit of time to visit the Victoria Falls from the Zambian side. This side of the falls is MUCH wetter than the Zimbabwean side, and we were completely soaked in no time! Part II: by air.

Notes from the Brown Bag. The beauty of Facetime. July 15, 2014. It’s just 4. Short days until I see the kids again, but in reality, I’ve ‘seen’ them almost every one of the 30 days I’ve been in Africa via the beauty of Facetime. Here’s what my view of life back home has been like. Technology is amazing, isn’t it? Share on Facebook (Opens in new window). Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window).

Victoria Falls | Notes from the Brown Bag
https://notesfromthebrownbag.com/2014/07/21/victoria-falls
Notes from the Brown Bag. July 21, 2014. At the conclusion of our safari adventure. We hopped a charter flight from the airstrip outside of our lodge to the other airport in Kruger National Park — Nelspruit. From there, we caught a direct flight to Livingstone, the airport closest to Victoria Falls on the Zambian side. Our 4-seater flight from Thornybush to Nelspruit and the other passengers (backs pictured here) were from Solon and Sandusky. Small world! The next day, Thursday July 17, 2014 we had a pac...

On Safari | Notes from the Brown Bag
https://notesfromthebrownbag.com/2014/06/23/on-safari
Notes from the Brown Bag. June 23, 2014. July 28, 2014. Just like at home, the#IBMCSC work week is packed with IBM deliverables, but the weekend (or the majority of the weekend) is personal time. We took advantage of this opportunity to explore the North West province and arranged a weekend safari. The well known park in South Africa is Kruger. The University helped arrange a bus to take 13 of us from Mafikeng to Madikwe Friday afternoon, arriving around 7:15 pm. The Tau Game Lodge. The safari experience...
