Hiya Guys,
Well what can I say, it's been an interesting couple of days.
Firstly, the flight over was much to be desired! We got to the airport to discover that the flight was over booked. Luckily ( i use that term loosely, read on to discover why) the kind gentleman on the desk sorted us with two seats together. Maria and I were overjoyed because the thought of spending almost 8 hours next to a smelly stranger was not high on my list of things to do before i'm 30. Anyhow, we meandered around the airport for a bit,trying not to spend any money and eventually boarded our flight. I noted that the staff were pleasant and the seating was cosy, then i heard a crying baby. You guessed it, we were stuck infront of a mother and her young brood. I was not impressed. the child continued to exercise its lungs for the majority of the flight, pausing only to be fed. it didn't even pretend to sleep for a minute. He also felt the need to give me several back massagers by kicking my chair.
Finally we landed in Canada. The customs chap was for from pleasant, he didn't even smile once. To cheer myself up, i went and brought some perfume (DNKY minitures) and went to have a well derserved drink with maria.
4 hours later, we boarded our connection flight to Caracas. THis wasn't so bad, the plane was a little chilly thou and no where near as comfy, although it was babyless, so i was content.
When we finally arrived at the airport, the b*****s has damaged on of my bags, (A sign of things to come methinks). We then had the task of finding a taxi driver that would not rip us off, it didn't happen. As hard as Maria tried to haggle (boy did she try, she scared me!) I was past caring, I just wanted a shower and a bed.
We arrived at the hotel at 1.35am local time (about 6.30am GMT) and by 2am finally flopped down ion the bed. i looked up and discovered the ceiling had mirrors on it. Very porn star.
The next day we went in search for some food and a travel agent to book our trip to Angle falls and to Panama... I'll tell you all about that little fiasco next time.
Hope you're all well
Speak to you soon
Love always N. xxx
