South Africa Day 1

Posted on June 15, 2018 in Travel, South Africa, 2018 South Africa Adventure

We were exhausted from our previous day of travel, so we didn’t wake up until 10:40. We quickly showered, got dressed and packed up, and went down to the hotel lobby to check out at 11:40. We had booked our first night separate from the tour group, so even though it was in the same hotel we had to change rooms. We were planning on leaving our bags with the hotel until we were able to check in later in the day, however our room was ready for us so we dropped our bags in our new room then went back down to the lobby.

South Africa Day 0

The trip to South Africa began in the early afternoon on Wednesday, June 13, 2018. Our first flight, KLM 692, was scheduled to depart from Pearson at 5:15 PM, so we had the car packed and departed from Kitchener shortly before 1 PM. Traffic was a breeze, and we arrived at the Park N’ Fly Self-Park lot shortly before 2 PM. We had checked in online the afternoon before, however we still had to get into line to check our bags at the KLM drop-off point in Terminal 3.
