Bill has now officially kicked off his African Safari and is in Johannesburg, South Africa. Today features a day and an overnight in Johannesburg to try to adjust to the local time after a red eye that left the United States from Atlanta, Georgia.
Accommodations feature his typical jumping off point in Johannesburg - the Peermont Metcourt Hotel at Emperor's palace. A photo of accommodations is shown below. The Peermont Metcourt is a three star hotel in South Africa that was originally built by Caesar's Palace. Following the overnight in Johannesburg, Bill and his group will be leaving early the next morning for the flight to Zambia.
