Getting there takes ages!

22 hours, to be precise. And there has to be humour in our airport follies... WHY is the Air Canada Arrivals Lounge so strangely located? False starts and lousy directions aside, it's quiet in here and Dean's snoozing. The computer access is handy too!

But for the multiple shuttle rides between terminals here at Heathrow, the first leg of our journey has been uneventful. Our in-flight movie was Stardust - a star-jammed flick I'd never even heard of. Soon we'll snake back through security and board the plane for an 11-hour flight to Jo'burg. From there it's the tinker toy hop to Maseru, the capital of Lesotho, followed by a short drive to Hlotse.

The mountains of Lesotho are stunning, and we can't wait for our first glimpse of them!
