Thandie and Peace began their journey to Malawi at 4am on Thursday April 5th. They are traveling with six 50-pound suitcases plus carry-ons. Thandie and Peace arrived in Washington just before 9 am. They had to claim their luggage and take a taxi to another airport (Washington Dulles). When they arrived, they discovered they would not be able to check in their bags until 2:30pm. Thandie and Peace had to wait with all of their luggage. They were excited when the check-in counter opened a little early. They even met some Malawians in line. Thandie and Peace were able to make some good-bye phone calls and get something to eat. At 5pm they boarded the plan. I was able to say good-bye as they closed the airplane door.
Thandie and Peace will arrive in Johannesburg South Africa on Friday afternoon. They will spend the night there and then will arrive in Malawi on Saturday around noon. I don't think I will hear from Thandie again until Saturday afternoon. I will be sure to post an update as soon as I hear from her.

How long of a flight is it from Dulles to South Africa? How far is S.A. from Malawi?
Just wanted to wish you a Happy and Blessed Easter.
