SISIYEMMIE'S SOUTH AFRICAN TOUR | DURBAN DIARY DAY 1 | ARRIVAL

I hopped on a South African Airways flight yesterday from Lagos to Johannesburg, it was a 5 hour flight at night and it was comfortable. I had a window seat (do you like the aisle or window seat?) and I requested for 2 packs of food and got it! I was so exhausted and hungry when I got on the plane, I'm sure I would have eaten more if I didn't tell my stomach to "keep kwayet!". From Johannesburg we took another flight to Durban, which we will be staying at for a while.
