Well I must say this has been the easiest, most uneventful flying experience of all my trips to Namibia. Some of it may have to do with not being responsible for 20-some-odd other people. I've blown through security, only twice, with no lines, no waiting. They've checked my passport once. No long layovers. Even the 15 hour flight was a breeze, other than my eccentric seatmate, but even that wasn't so bad. So now I'm waiting in the Joburg airport, almost ready to board my last 2 hour flight to Windhoek. But in my spare half hour I had to check online to see that the Pats sqeaked another one out. Sports analyst Mike says this is dangerous for the rest of the NFL. Everybody may be saying that now they're vulnerable, but I say now they've experienced a little pressure. They can blow teams out of the water, but they can also come from behind in the fourth quarter. This is the third time. So watch out NFL, this "never perfect" attitude will only make this team better and harder to beat down the road. Well I only have 10 minutes left and a few emails to read over. Thanks for all your comments and travel prayers!

I agree... but it was hard to watch... squeaked is totally the word... if not for a poor choice in timeout calls by the Raven's sideline it may have been really bad.
you should be landing in Namibia right about now. I am praying your landing won't be like Feb 04... ouch... talk to you soon!! :)
AND I am praying that your flight was not full and your bags are with you because ... "heavy planes crash" you know...
Love ~G

I was thinking the very same thing when I got home from work late last night. Memories of the '05 blog! I'll have to call Denise so she can hop on board. Glad you had a nice flight over. Was the quick trip your best so far? Have to get the report on that so I'll know how to fly next time!

i'm glad to hear you've flown easy so far. good luck on the last leg of the flight and the first leg of your african life!
