Delta has dropped the main leg from Atlanta to Joberg so we have to go around the world. our flights up until a week or so ago were (at least mine was) Phoenix to Atlanta. Atlanta to Salt Lake, Salt lake to Minneapolis, Minneapolis to Amsterdam, Amsterdam to Joberg. Some of the guys had even a more disjointed flight than that, coming back thru Paris and so on. Thank the Lord that was shelved and we are now waiting on a new flight schedule. Two of our group have dropped out but we still have 10 signed up. Here is the list of hunters...
1.GR
2.Erik Stenberg
3.Nick Stenberg
4.Stuart Marshall
5.Alcorn Russell
6.Michael Mendes
7.Doug Faith
8.Dave manson
9.Ray Shepard
10.Danielle Shepard
We were scheduled to leave on April 2 and arriving in Joberg on April 3, leaving to come back on April 13. Now with all the different plane changes and possible layovers we will probably have to leave on April 1st and leave to come home on April 13. This is just conjecture as we don't have our schedule yet. The travel lady is working trying to find a better way to get there rather than going thru Amsterdam.
I am proud of my hunters as they have gone thru hell with all the plane changes and country changes and so on, but 10 of the 12 have stuck with it. Ray Shepard said he would row a boat over the Atlantic to get to hunt in Africa. I feel the same way as this is my last Africa hunt due to a couple of minor health issues.
So everything is still set unless Biden puts another halt to flying out of and returning into the U.S.
