Things go pear-shaped
20. September 2019 in Spanien ⋅ ⛅ 23 °CWe had an enjoyable seven hour train trip at speeds of up to 300km per hour and arrived in Barcelona on schedule at 10pm. Dramas followed when Avis told us that our debit cards were unacceptable andWeiterlesen
Brian and Mary, Allan a d I are so upset for this awful thing that has happened to you. We know it will be hard to get over and we are so glad that you had passports and important cards stored safely. Brian, maybe time to buy another camera anyway- some good mirrorless ones available and lighter for travel. Our thoughts are with you. Carol and Allan
Allan and Carol. Thanks for your thoughts. We'll certainly get over it and are determined that we won't let it spoil the holiday. The camera was a few years old and I will get another one. I miss the iPad and keyboard but a replacement will have to be delayed until we get home.
Like I said to you yesterday, the most important thing is that neither of you were hurt. It's a huge pain in the butt but don't let it ruin your trip. I know that's easier said than done but you have so many awesome adventures ahead of you. Grab yourself a small camera to see you through until you can buy what you really want when you get home. There's lots of neat little pocket cameras around. Maybe the hotel can recommend a shop? On a brighter note, we've been watering your new plant. It's still alive and thriving :) Tell Mum her frangipani is showing signs of life again too. Rain forecast for the next few days but I won't hold my breath. Talk to you later. HK xxx
