To Johannesburg in South Africa when I had just turned 6.

To Philadelphia, which is a boring 2 hour flight from Georgia. I was SO happy when it was over, because one of my fears is dying in a plane crash. I'm not as afraid of dying in a crash as I am at the thought of sharing my bed with spiders, but it's pretty close...

I have traveled with my family while growing up. the first plane ride that i was on all by myself was to one of the caribbean islands. i was 23. not that young. the flight was delayed and therefore missed the connecting flight. i had to stay overnight at a hotel in a country i had never been to. this was my first time traveling alone.

Des Moines,Iowa,the boredom capital of the free world.It is also a dangerous place to drive,as the corn grows right up to the edges of all intersections,making viewing of oncoming traffic nearly impossible.

From Los Angeles to Boston. From there I went to Zurich and then to Geneva. This was for a high school band tour of Europe in 1973.
When we left Zurich two weeks later, half of the band was in an airplane in which one of the engines exploded on takeoff. The plane immediately landed and no one was hurt. I was on that plane.

How long were you there? What was it like?
by Stableboy on March 30th, 2007
I was there for 5 years and for a pre-teen it was quite exciting (we stayed in a suburb outside of Johannesburg beside an airport). And because of news blackouts we didn't know anything that was going on (this was the horrible days of the mid to late 80s). But I still saw *lots* of social inequality - the separate buses, the "white only" signs. I saw police set dogs on open-air church services, I saw parents remove their children from a swimming pool because a black girl had got in. Shocking stuff, and doubly shocking because it was *normal*...
by hijklmno on April 1st, 2007
Wow. There's nothing like a first-hand education in ignorance and bigotry... yikes.
by Stableboy on April 1st, 2007
That was during the apartheid. I was just in durban for the last 2 years and heard about that time period.
