A little experiment here. Trying to blog by phone in bus, transiting from Jo’burg to Hoedspruit.
Arrived in Johannesburg late last night after about 36 hours of uneventful uprightness, mostly sitting on my butt. This morning up at 0500, check out, wolf down complimentary (and excellent) breakfast, meet Trevor from WildEye in lobby to pick up 600mm lens, walk to station for shuttle and transit buses and board bus that will take us to Eastgate Airport in Hoedspruit, where we rent a car, drive to the Pack and Save for groceries, then drive to the Orpen gate to Kruger National Park. We’ll enter the Park there and spend I think 2 nights at Orpen Camp, which is a decent launching point for the Park.
Am very rummy from lack of sleep. The ‘bus’ is actually a 14 passenger mini van and is much tighter than the planes we spent last day and a half on. My butt really hurts....
Not much good to say much here except that we’re well, all going smoothly and we’ll be in the bush in 6 hours or so. We’ll sleep well tonight.
