common questions

I don't know about you, but my knowledge of South Africa (also referred to as "ZA") is limited. We all know the best way to learn about a culture is to immerse yourself in it. Fortunately, that is exactly what we get to do!

We have been doing a lot of research over the past few months, but have barely made a dent in the rich history of the country. I will be posting relevant facts and info on this blog, but until then, here are answers to a couple common questions we have gotten:

"How long is the flight?"

Answer: the flight is 15 hours 25 minutes nonstop from Atlanta. We will be flying on a Boeing 777 jet (in business class - hooray!!!!)

"What is the time difference?"

Answer: GMT+2.
May 6th @ 9am EST = May 6th @ 3pm in Johannesburg (*there is no Daylight Savings adjustment in Africa so the difference will change from 6 hours when the U.S. changes in the Fall*)
