We have just arrived in Jo'burg...I think...this has been an interesting fun and looooooooong flight




We have also had our first introduction to how SA is making use of its local talent. Many may not have realized it, but the amenity kit that we received while in flight was designed by a Johannesburg based artist, Mphelane Boitumelo Mareletse.




"...the design was inspired by SAA's brand purpose, which is to be a catalyst for African growth. 'With a strong focus on 'African Premium', we wanted a young designer who could use the airline's brand assets in a fresh, new way,' says Myriam Bracke, SAA's Manager: Product Development...'It's about a new mission for the continent: a world-class destination with its own unique attributes.'" -New Amenity Kit.(2016, May). Sawubona, 36.




...later that day...or the next day... We finally arrived in Cape Town and were whisked away to our hotel after a long clearance process at the airport. The Southern Sun The Cullinan has lived up to all of my expectations. It is bright, cheery and first class. I am impressed. I am off to sleep and am excited for all of the adventures yet to come this week.
