After 40 hours, 5 flights, and several unappetizing meals, we arrived in Gaborone. The last leg was on a turbo-prop from Johannesburg -- we got a good view of the nearby Kgale Hill, the Limpopo river (think Rudyard Kipling), and the town itself.

The weather is almost the same as that in Tucson in the spring: 70's during the day and 40's at night. The agaves, prickly pears, and low-lying homes make the town look even more like Tucson.

The University's connection to the internet is pretty slow, often as slow as 1bps which makes for short posts. Hopefully, we'll be able to get a faster connection via DSL. Then we might even post pictures :)
