It took me a good twenty minutes or so to find the Caribbean airlines ticketing place, when I found it they had no idea about my ticket. I tried my hardest to explain what was going on in Spanish I think they understood, I had missed my flight last night and had bought a ticket for this mornings flight but the payment didn't go through so I had to pay and collect my ticket. After about half an hour explaining, they finally realised what was going on and happened, I went off to pay for it in the office using the same card as the night before. All paid, now with ticket I was now roughly free to do what I wanted until the flight, I just needed to sort out the airport tax. I had no money on me at all and my card wouldn't work in the ATM. I went and did a quick poo, then had to get down to business and sort out the tax payment, all $162.50 Bolivars. I went and asked where I could withdraw some money, they said at the cambios, they can withdraw money for me. I went there and it took about forty minutes for them to withdraw some money for the tax. My time was slowly ticking away, I was actually getting really worried that I might miss my flight again. I quickly paid my airport tax, went through customs, the queue was taking forever, I just heard my name called over loudspeaker and fear was really starting to kick in, I was shitting myself, I didn't want to miss another flight and have to pay all over again. I went as fast as I could, when I got to the gate, it was closed! Shit!!!
Thank goodness I wasn't the only one missing, they opened the doors, I walked out onto the plane and sat in my seat, what a relief, I was now on my way finally.
