Just a Taste...

We're back from the distant land where my oldest sister Chris recently got hitched... It was a the biggest whirlwind of a trip I have ever possibly experienced, but maybe the finest? A mere 20-hour flight (not counting the layover) gets you across the world. Is it just me or is this insanity? While we were above the Atlantic, perfectly slicing through the space between South America and Africa, it took a great deal of motivated thinking to replace images of plummeting towards the uninhabited watery mass below with lovely imaginings of snapping photos of zebras, elephants, and giraffes... From the evidence below, you can see that my motivated thinking saved the day. Or, the highly trained pilots who flew our Boeing 777 (a formidable plane). Next, I have to tell you that I'm not really in a healthy enough state to give justice to the trip to SA. I'll leave you with these pictures, hoping you'll check back soon for more!

And lastly... how could I not post some photos of my dear sis getting married?
