We are in Johannesburg!
Arrived in Johannesburg or Tambo airport. We were met by Claire and her husband Roman. They took us to our hotel room – which is attached to their retirement community for friends and family to stay when visiting A really nice place. (this is outside Johannesburg so in a pretty good area.)
After freshening up we met them for dinner at the retirement community restaurant where we enjoyed their famous beer batter fish – best fish I have had in years and a bottle of Pinotage.
Had major issue with electricity as the converter I brought did not have a plug that matched the South African plugs and the one Penny brought was just a plug changer and not a CONVERTER. Roman, came to the rescue with a plug he had at home and then we realized that the power cord to my laptop went as high as 240 so we were okay.
Then the wifi password we had, only worked with 2 devices, so after signing in with Penny and my iPhones, we could not get wifi on my laptop. And the office was closed so could not get them to help. So we just went to bed to see if we could get our body clocks in sync with the time change.
