The Joys of Travel

Well, today was the day for me to get to the US Consulate in Auckland to apply for my visa.  I got to the airport at 6.30 am in the dark and the flight was cancelled due to the pilot being sick! 

So i came home and booked a new flight for next week then i phoned the airline to refund the cancelled one.  Then i got confirmation by email of the refunded flight, only to see they had cancelled and refunded the NEW flight for next week.  So more phone calls and got that straightened out! 

Now i'm just waiting for a call from the Consulate to confirm a new appt time because i didn't have a special number to enable me to change my appt!  I hope this isn't a sign of things to come!!
