Well I arrived in Africa safe and sound. 5hr flight from Perth to Singapore, 3hr layover, 10.5hr to Jo/burg and 4hr layover then 3hr flight. It is turning out to be a long night. The flights so far have been OK just long and tedious. The flight from Sing to J/burg was noisey, I have never flown in a plane that was soo loud before. The other 2 flights I had the row of seats to myself.
Johannesburg airport is massive. I was expecting a dinky little place like Perth but it is massive. It caters for a lot of small flights to the southern African countries so there were a lot of airlines I hadn't seen before. There was a great message while I was there, They called the name and said ""you are the only problem passenger, go to gate 4 now for boarding." I thought was **** funny.
