Sometimes I work in Johannesburg

I am leaving for "Jo'burg" Saturday.

This is a trip of record duration: 2 weeks. This is also a first-ever trip to South Africa, or the African continent for that matter!

This is also a 2 week period at a busy time of year. There are only 4 weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas, and I'll be gone for 2 of them. Holiday parties. Buying gifts. Getting a tree...all the things that are so much easier when both parents are home will be made tougher because one parent (that's me) is traveling.

I'm hoping readers of TravelingParent.com who travel for extended periods can share some tips!
