I. I'm here safe and sound...



Hello from South Africa, friends! As you probably all know by now, I have safely arrived in Stellenbosch after about 38 hours of traveling from Maple Hill, Kansas to Stellenbosch, Western Cape, South Africa. My trip was fine, but a little long and tiring, especially since I tend to not sleep on moving things. When I arrived in Cape Town, I was greeted by the friendliest people, staff at the International Office at Stellenbosch University. All I wanted to do was sleep, but I forced myself to stay awake so I could start adjusting to the local time - 7 hours ahead of Midwest US - as quickly as possible. I'm on day 3 and I'm feeling quite alright, so I think the adjustment is going well and I am defeating jetlag. And I'm sure the warm 70s-80s sunny perfect weather isn't hurting...
