Made it to New York

Long haul from Luanda. Had to sprint through Johannesburg airport and only just made the connection. Disappointed not to have been able to shop in South Africa's duty free. Flight was fine, we stopped in Dakar to refuel and then did another 8 hours to Kennedy. Arrived on a beautiful sunny NY morning. I made it in one piece, my bag did not. It's still in Jburg. Oh well, no huge deal - it will arrive tomorrow. Currently at laguardia waiting for shuttle eating an ice cream, so nice to be back in the land of edible food!
