Good news from DC. I have a seat # for the flight to Joburg! Thank you Mark H for telling me about this routing a few weeks back or I would still be in TO. However another flight delay for 2 hours.... I'm starting to think it's me... =o)
I used my 9 hour layover wisely.
1. EAT FOOD.
2. Confirm there would be space for me on the SA flight.
3. Board the bus to downtown DC and tour the Mall. Now I know what you are thinking.....but this is not a shopping center mall, but a gathering place for people to gather, surrounded by the main buildings here in DC.
4. Walk at least 5 miles around the Mall with carry-on luggage....I was feeling good last night that I had packed a few days clothing....today not so much.....
5. Took lots of pictures..... including some great self portraits....
6. Grab a slice of Pizza at the First and ONLY restaurant I saw.....and head back to the Airport.
All in all a good day, which if my flight actually leaves will become a GREAT day!
I'll post some pictures when I can. The wi-fi here is not co-operating. Next post will hopefully be from South Africa!
SO glad you decided to blog your adventures!! Looking forward to pics!!
