The late arrival.
Well I finally have internet access, so all you folks who I promised to keep up to date on my adventures look out 'cause I have plenty to tell.
We (myself and two other trinis) left our native land to go to Honduras on work related training. Not having US visas we had to take the ´scenic´ route. Being through Venezuela, Colombia, Costa Rica and then to our destination Honduras. Sounds long does it? Well it got longer! The flight from Venezuela to Colombia was delayed by 1 hour. So as a result we missed the flight from Colombia to Costa Rica!!
Did I mention that the only spanish I speak is Corona. (Well I can speak a little more, but you get the gist). Had to be the spanish speaker for my 'marooned' group. Had a tough time trying to find our luggage, thank God we got it. And trying to figure out how to say, sign, draw, beg for information on the next flight that evening.
Someone ever told you some thing and you understood but just did not want to hear. It hapened to me. I was told in broken spanglish that there was no more flights to Costa Rica that evening. How will I tell my friends who were depending on me to find out what time we leaving Colombia...
I did it in the best way I could, as a true trini. I let it all out in nice trini terms, that of course I cannot put online. What do we do now???
