A long trip. Left accommodation in Joburg at 3pm on Friday and arrived at accommodation here in Halifax at 9pm on Saturday, never mind the 6 hour time difference! Air Canada definitely gets or vote!! And Sarah, isle seats were brilliant, emergency exit seats were even better!!!!!! Thank you!! It was a pretty "uneventful" trip, the only drama is that 4 of us are still waiting for out paddles.... they have been lost somewhere between Toronto and Halifax. Bleak!
On arrival into Halifax we were met by the two very friendly expats. Johan and Paul have both been living in Canada for about as long as most of the team has been alive, and are undoubtedly the most hospitable people ever. They have both been such a great help with getting us settled and are 2 of the most enthusiastic and happy pair you could wish to meet in a foreign county. Other than driving us around to show us some sights and helping getting things sorted, they have asked if they chould organise a braai with all the South Africans in the area for us. Sounds like it could be fun.
