We arrived at the Newark Holiday Inn after our first travel fiasco. The gps sent us to an old location for the hotel and then airport construction and closed exit ramps led to a 3 1/2 hour ride to Newark. Ugh. However, it is a good reminder that many obstacles will meet us ahead. As we told the kids, there will be delays, missed connections and general travel discomfort. The challenge is how do we deal with it.
6:30 shuttle to the airport for our 8:50am flight to South Africa via London. Here we go.
Saying good bye to friends from their happy place - the trampoline.
