Botswana 2 ~ It starts ...again!

Day 0.5
Another adventure is beginning. Albeit a shorter one this time but overseas, nonetheless.
I'm sitting in Perth International airport, having just updated my facebook page courtesy of free Optus broadband kiosks, waiting for my 11:45pm connection to South Africa.
Unfortunately I've had to fly Qantas, which is taking me via Perth. I prefer the Singapore route, but my plans this time left me with little choice. I'll make do I'm sure.
Having flown domestic from Brisbane I forgot to check my bags all the way to Gaborone so I'll need to clear immigration and collect them in Jo'burg. I have a 3 hour transit window so this should be fine, and it also gets me away from that international joke of a transit desk at the Jo'burg airport.
I was really really hoping to be able to do all my checkin-ing online this time, but because of code-sharing between Qantas and SAA, it seems this isn't possible. Hopefully they and the world will catch up.
It's late, I'm tired, so I'm going to lie down over several seats and get some rest before the flight leaves.
