Safari So Good

Well, we are on a small Q400 prop plane headed to our first stop in Portland.  We have been flying for about 70 minutes (30 more to go) and I feel like I’ve been on this plane forever!  Not a good sign, given that we have two  more flights (10 and 8 hours respectively). Here’s the plan:  lunch in Portland, sleep most of the flight between Portland and Amsterdam (next stop), then wake up and stay awake from Amsterdam to Kilimanjaro, at which time it will be approximately 8 pm Tuesday.  At the Kilimanjaro Airport, we are met by the African Adventure rep, and take some kind of land vehicle to get to our first destination – Arusha and a real bed to sleep in!  So, so excited…
