As an addendum to yesterday's post, the real nightmare happened today. Again, it was Murphy's Law that prevailed. The concerned persons who were supposed to help us out were nowhere to be found. And I knew that if the passport was to be released, it would be just in the nick of time.
But life is always full of surprises. In the confusion about changing companions, the airline reservation was made for the wrong companion! Yes, sir. 30 minutes before the plane was supposed to leave, we discover too late the booking was in the wrong name. Only a MIRACLE could save us this time.
Suffice it to say, after much tension, butterflies in everyone's stomach, cajoling, pleading, begging, arguing and shouting, everyone was able to leave as scheduled. I will no longer detail what it took to accomplish this, except to say it cost another $347.
Yes, God is truly good all the time. And this time, even if deep in my heart, the situation did not really warrant a miracle, He still came up with one. And in behalf of everyone whose nerves were frazzled, I say thank you, dear Lord.
Oh there were many lessons learned about the experience the last two days. We are all definitely much wiser because of it. But I am CERTAIN no one wants to go through such nightmare again.
One thing all of us agreed on at the office: we can definitely put up our own travel agency.
