Lesson on Bush travel


This trip has been full of learning experiences.

This morning we had another one, this one was on bush travel.

It goes like this: the plane that is supposed to be here at 11:05 will land and go again at 10:00, when the airline office tells you first, no no it is on schedule, expect the next conversation to be oh, it is gone already and then when the agent tells you, oh it will stop again on the way back from the next village and pick you up, that means it will go straight to the hub and not stop here at all!

So there we were two sad students standing out on the frozen runway with the ravens eating the newly arrived groceries...
Trying to reschedule, but we probably won't make it back until tomorrow.
