It feels great to be back in Canada! I didn’t sleep at all on the plane and was awake for about 46 hours in total. The 11 hour flight from Jo-Burg to Amsterdam was absolute torture. I was extremely uncomfortable, both physically & mentally, and had a pretty bad headache for the majority of the flight. Our flight left Johannesburg at 11:30pm and within an hour or two I was so exhausted I thought I was going to freak out and lose it. Not having the option of doing something I desperately needed to do (sleep in a horizontal position) made me feel like jumping out of my skin. I can’t remember the last time I felt so exhausted, but I wasn’t able to fall asleep no matter how hard I tried. When we landed in Amsterdam I took a few Clonazepams, which made the second 8 hour flight tolerable.
We’re here until September 13. I’m already dreading the flight back. I’ll need to stock up on some more Clonazepam, just in case.
