Missed flights...After missing last nights flights, we made sure to set the alarm for 5:30 in the morning to catch the 6:30 flight. The hotel was 5 minutes away from the airport.
She was up and ready before 5:30 and started to wake me up. "Airport is just 5 mins away" sentence were my only words on auto-repeat till 6:00 and by the time we reached airport, the flight was all ready to leave and so we missed the flight. We lost all the money we had spent on the tickets because we had already made one change on it. There was no room on any flight till next day. Only option was to travel first class.
So after losing all the money, we booked first class. The flight had 5 more hours to do. Out of the five hours, I got to listen to her lecture for more than three hours. After that we spent our time in the lounge having tea and biscuits and listening to music on our laptop. Just about half and hour before boarding, I realised that we could have used the Premium lounge as we had first class tickets and could have spent our time in luxury *smack*
We still went in there for half an hour :p
Finally we managed to board the flight and reached Bangalore in the afternoon. I had invited few of my friends for dinner that evening and I had made the booked and arranged a table as well. My friends were a bit worried because we were supposed to be there a day before and we had made no contact with them at all. As soon as we reached there, I called them up to tell them that the dinner was still on.
