After flying into Frankfurt, Germany last night it was time to leave for another destination. I managed to catch a 6:30 AM South African Airways A340-600 to Johannesburg, South Africa.

The sun is on the rise as we hold short of the runnway.

Climbing into the morning sky.

Leveled off at 37500 feet.  Breakfast is being served and everyone is settling in for the 10 hours left in the flight.

Decending into our final aproch.  The flight attendents are securing the cabin and preparing for landing.

Runnway just ahead.

Slowing down on 3L.

Finaly made it to the gate after a long 10 1/2 hour flight.  Its 4 PM and I'm off to a hotel to get some well needed rest.  As for tommarrow its time to find another flight to who knows where ???


The trip so far:

Detroit to Frankfurt
Frankfurt to Johannesburg
