We've Arrived

Our flights were uneventful, and we arrived in Johannesburg right on time, just as the sun was setting. We printed our match tickets at kiosks in the airport, and Jim's uncle Peter met us at the airport and took us home to a wonderful light dinner prepared by aunt Marty. Gywen went to bed after dinner, but Barry, Peter and I watched the England v. Algeria match. The nil-nil tie wasn't too exciting, but we were happy as the result keeps the U.S. team alive.

We're about to head of on the bus to Rustenburg, where we will see Ghana v. Australia. We're decked out in Ghana apparel and hoping for Ghana win! This will be a full day excursion, as we're leaving at 10:30 for the 4:00 game. FIFA recommends arriving two hours before the match, but regardless we're bound to the bus company's schedule.
