This weekend, a major spanner was thrown in the works. Sunday morning, we found out that the travel agent we have booked our flights home to Sydney through have gone bust/is a scam. This means, we have lost our flights, are in the process of trying to get our money back (which could take up to a couple of months) and in the process of trying to find alternative flights home (they seemed to have tripled in price).
It was/still is absolutely devastating. I can't believe any company could do that to so many people, especially around Christmas.
The awful news called for a brisk walk around the castle to clear our heads and to conjure up our plan of attack. Fresh air always makes me feel better, and will sometimes even put a smile back on my face. Now we have to get back to finding new flights. I'll keep you updated.

ewww i HATE when things like that happen. it's just so unfair. but i know what you mean about fresh air - it has healing powers, huh?
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness Sophie what a disaster! It makes me so mad that people can get away with things like that, I hope it all works out with getting your money back and finding new flights! Check out a few of the asian airlines, like China Southern or Asiana- cheap flights and the planes aren't too bad!

Oh no Soph! That is terrible of them to do that to you - especially so late in the game when flights have tripled!

That's terrible. I don't understand how people can do that, and, like you said, so close to Christmas when many people are wanting to go home or go on holidays!
ReplyDeleteOn a brighter note, though, this is a lovely outfit! I love your shoes and snood.
