30 day blog challenge (fiction): Day 4 flights to Guyana

Oh... don't even ask...

It's 2 a.m. and my flight leaves at 5:40...

Who needs sleep... right... RIGHT...

It's going to be a looooong-asssss day. Like 23 hours long. Last time I did something this stupid it was Melbourne to Cape Town. Swore I wouldn't do it again...

So... Minneapolis then Fort Lauderdale then Port of Spain where I'll sleep on the floor... if they let me... (flashbacks of Los Angeles...)

Early flight to Georgetown... like a hummingbird... the mascot of Caribbean Airlines...

I'll get there about the same time everyone else does... unless they get caught up in a revolution...

I'll be staying at the Hostel Guyana Paradises, which is a good 3 km away from the Marriot... but it's $100 cheaper (I'm cheap... okay? Got a problem with that? Didn't think so...) and it's right by the botanical gardens and zoo! I'm happy.

Not sure what our itinerary is...

...it better include some re—lax—a—tion. Or a nap... a nap might do. But I suspect it'll be go-go-go-go-go.

Young folks... what can I say.

I know some of the group but I haven't met them all in person.

Should I be afraid?

Be very afraid.

Screw the zoo! I'm looking forward to wrestling with these wily writers. I suspect Kitti the Red-Nosed Feline won't be afraid of me though...

The others? I'll learn them a thing or two.

Peace, Kåre
