Part 7: The trip home.

The trip home was almost as bad as the trip out. We were supposed to go Johannesburg to Newark to SNA, but the first plane had mechanical issues. They grounded it, and bussed a couple hundred of us to a local hotel, where it took us until 2:30 in the morning to check in and get to our room. Then it took two days to get us out on flights from Johannesburg to Zurich to Chicago to LAX, which was exhausting.

Waiting for our plane, we saw that the 2026 Jehovah's Witness conference was in Johannesburg.
In a lounge in the Zurich airport, we saw this little robot moving around and sweeping the floors.
