[What did I learn today? Lessons on the Journey to Unconditional Self Love] Returning Stronger Day 11

Observe and learn. Often when things don't turn out we can be relieved in
retrospect. Something different or better emerges. Wait a while. Carole

They came to pay the hotel bill at 3pm I was supposed to leave for the
airport at that time She walked in with a type of fire that I seldom see, she told them off
for "keeping a foreign visitor hostage" she called them stupid and village
mentality, proceeded to pay and said never again would anyone from her
Company patronize the place I looked on in awe

The ride to the airport was one straight out the movies, Issa the driver
was going down up roads, riding on pavements, dodging cars and to think we
were in a twelve seater bus, him and I alone

"Issa, what are you doing?" "I am getting you to the airport Madam" "Well there are so many police around, maybe we ought to ease up" "It is ok madam" So I buckled up for the ride Needless to say I made it to the airport with an hour to spare, I am
walking into the terminal and there are Health officials at the door
demanding Yellow Fever Immunisation cards! Oh snap- same guy from when I entered- what a coincedence No one can enter the airport without one I stood back and watched because I have no card, and I want to leave the
country AND he let me go before with a requirement that I get one at a
Ugandan hospital I saw another lady checking for cards, I thought I would go and plead with
her Same time I went up a commotion started with 2 men who had fake
Immunisation cards (who knew that was possible) they started hollering and making a scene, I pulled out my passport held it
up and ran through that barrier like Usain Bolt. The guy from before
spotted me, i said bye officer, he shot me the eye - I passed hurdle one!

I checked in and was now going through departures Finger print to be taken I do the dutiful The officer told me wait here and went for someone Hmmm this doesn't look good Madam your prints don't match Well my forst reaction was hearty laughter Officer surely? Let's try again Here I was thinking it was my lack of yellow fever documents His supervisor went on the computer, they spoke in their language again and
then told me to try again It worked, there was a match! I'm outta here Peace
