Westin CPT for 10K SPG (or $550) vs. Hilton CPT for 50K (or $286)?

personally go for the cheaper and use the extra on a better tour in Krueger.

Either way, I'm using points, so I won't be out of pocket... Just curious what I should do.

We booked SPG for now.

I have a cousin who lives there (he's the sil of the chief Rabbi)

AJK, you got me thinking to maybe hop on a plane with my kids and go as well

Dont think a safari with kids can be arranged so little in advance and just CPT might not be worth it

Also Krugers is not malaria free....

AJK · « **Reply #348 on:** December 22, 2013, 04:22:07 AM »

Everything is going to work out.

Meet us there. We're working it out as we speak :-)

chuchem · « **Reply #349 on:** December 22, 2013, 04:33:05 AM »

Yeah, booking for 7 and booking for 2 is a little different :-)

Kids still have school 2 days. Lets see how things go.

Prob will not happen, but you never know

Easier to get to JNB from ZRH, than from NYC

a lot. I think it's an hour diff. Also Chuchum be careful you might need shots. And kids can be arranged but you'll need to hire a jeep with windows and roof

Wow, enjoy. Trip of a lifetime (or at least till there's kids

)
Too bad no SEZ. Was hoping for a TR on it.
At least it'll get cheaper w/ UA post-deval ex-TLV.

Did you find out what the shabbes options are in cpt?

Any hotels within walking distance of shul
Any shul host meals?

Does it have a eiruv in cpt?

there is a full out community in cpt now bec its the summer and universities are off.

rabbi brett from ohr sameach is there. he is an amazing person and very helpful (only from what people have been telling me)

as well as the chabad rabbi (they think his name is rabbi mizrachi) if anyone needs a number or 2 i have of some single older (20+) guys that can help.

Not sure if shots are completely necessary. (Well, I sure hope they aren't

)

Was hoping to be able to provide a TR to SEZ, but beggars can't be choosers.

I think we'll be in JoBurg for Shabbas, but I do believe there are hotels within walking distance to shuls in CPT.

There ain't no F to MQP... trust me

Unless of course, you mean on the nose of the puddle jumper.
