Final travel

I am currently testing this photo posting thing. I don't know if it is my computer or the connection or my computer's connection to the connection, but it takes so long to post a photo. If any of you are blog saavy feel free to tell me what to do to remedy the situation. In the meantime you have to go to flickr to see them:




Anyways, I slept well and woke up early (3am, dang jetlag). After using up my last internet credit and getting disconnected from a Skype call to my cousin (sorry Tillman and Lisa), I made my way to the airport. I had an e-ticket so I went right up to check in only for the agent to say she couldn't find me anywhere. I must have been out of it because I didn't panic at all. I just pushed my mega luggage over to the ticketing office. It was there where I knew I was back in Africa again. The guy that helped me was nice enough. I plead my case. I told him I had received an itinerary from the travel agent a month ago that included the Jberg Maputo flight. However, right before I left she sent another and I just assumed it was the same. I looked on my computer for the saved itinerary and to my dismay....it didn't include any flight to Mozambique!!!! I told him if I had to pay for the flight he should find the cheapest one. He winked and assured me I wouldn't have to pay. Long story short, the travel agent had sent the ticket reservation as a text message on his system, not as a real reservation. So he had a record of it, but didn't have the reservation. So...the ticket agent wasn't really doing me a favor, right? He was helping me, yes, but he wasn't going out of his way. So he prints out the e-ticket and then commences to ask me when he can come to Maputo to visit since he comes very often. Then he writes his number on my eticket. Oh yes. I am in Africa again.
