Well this is better late than never, and I don’t claim to be an outdoor writer. So here goes!
Day 0, July 3 Africa Sky Guesthouse Johannesburg South Africa
After a 3 hour drive to the airport here in Nebraska, a 2 hour flight to Atlanta, a 12 hour layover in Atlanta, where I highly recommend the Jekyl Island Seafood Company and paying for a one time pass to the Delta Sky Club, an hour delay clearing the gate and a 14 hour flight I arrived in Africa! I have to say that Delta comfort plus is worth every penny on this long of a flight. I was met by a representative from Africa Sky as I deplaned. We cleared the enormous crowd at customs in record time and collected my luggage with zero issues. Passing through the reception hall at OR Tambo is quite an experience. Clearing my firearm through SAPS was entirely painless and amazingly swift. I took longer for my rifle to get there than to clear it through. After a short drive I checked in and had a very nice supper. Afterwards had a couple of drinks at the, believe it or not honor bar with a hunting party from Canada and their PH who were coming back from Mozambique. Off to camp tomorrow.
Here are a couple pictures of Africa Sky
