So on friday night a plan was made to travel back to the city of lights from the city of the dead, and the next day was spent rushing from one place to the other to gather presents and things asked for. A crazy me decided to defrost and clean the damn freezer which fought me till its last breath until it gave me an insane backache! nevermind all this since the days to come would be even harder!
since my phone has passed away to phone heaven, i cannot upload any pictures i took during the insanely tiring and extremely exhausting 36 hours to follow. It all started with our flight delayed from 9:20pm to 10:00pm. We quickly grabbed some coffee from costa thinking the flight would leave at any moment. at 10 the board said
" Flight Delayed, more info at 11:00"
So we waited and we waited... from 11 to 12 to 1 to 2 to 3... aaaaaaarghhh... until the airline "emirates" gave us food vouchers which only got us some french fries and garlic bread since the kitchen at the restaurant was not prepared for an entire 777's passengers. Then we were told at 4 that the flight was cancelled until the next day and we were to pick up our already checked in luggage and goto a hotel. So now another waiting began because the luggage carousel took forever to bring our luggage. Only to discover one of the pieces was broken and un-lockable! so... then began another story of filing a report which had to be done by hand since the dude didnt know how to do it on the computer...Bleaaah!! =P finally we go outside only to discover hundreds of ppl waiting for the coach, so we take the taxi instead. At this point i was feeling like i would pass out at any second. we reached the hotel and i put my head down on the pillow and that was that... zzzzzzzz... only 2 hours later we had to get up to eat breakfast and then head back to the airport. and re-check in... and all that BS!
flight was supposed to leave at 2pm, and at 2pm the board says..
"Wait for further info until 3" and then at 3 .. nothing! finally at around 3:30 we could go to the respective lounge and board the plane. At this point i could see stars!!! ... (look at all the pretty stars which are making me want to throw up)!!! too tired to Aaargh at this point.
We missed out connection in Dubai and ended up waiting for 8 hours there! insert dead zombie like aeeerraagghhhh... we made it to Karachi finally and 2 days later i still feel exhausted and a little sick! maybe im still in transit... hmm... *crazy eyes*...
