Arriving in China

CHINA | Wednesday, 18 July 2007 | Views [779] | Comments [2]

Well we arrived in China on the 18th after a hassel in Vietnam with Candice's tickets.
One of the coupons on Candice's tickets was missing and she could not get on the flight to Shanghai. Jamie has both coupons and he was alright to go the whole way, however Candice only had the coupon ticket to get to Hong Kong. We were waiting forever before someone would let us know what was going on. The Vietnam airlines rep came and told us that there was nothing we could do and he was SO unhelpful!
He explained to us the only way for us to get to Shanghai was to purchase another ticket - so we weren't happy about that advise. 
(It didn't help that we were both really hung over from drinking too much Bia Hoi for our last night in Vietnam) 
So we went to Hong Kong and purchased another ticket to continue on to Shanghai which we only got just before boarding time, due to the coustomer assistance lady taking her sweet ass time. We called our travel agent but there was nothing she could do. However we can claim the other flight on our insurance, so that's great news.

We arrived at our hotel at around 9pm after driving through the well lit up city. We met our group outside the hotel as we arrived, then we went to bed after a long day.

Hello,
Got your postcard short and sweet but we loved it very funny. Mum and Dad were thrilled to get their postcard they said to tell you thankyou and they hope you both are having a great time and keep them coming. News from us we bought a gold 05 hilux dualcab its got bulbar towbar and canopy "all set up for camping" so we won't have to get another "b*#ch" trailer. We were in rocky for taras 21st on the weekend I lasted until 10pm whilst trying to put jordan asleep I flaked myself. Couldn't wait to get home rocky is too busy for us country folk.
Love Yas Mmwah
