Nowhere to go

Flying in winter season can be quite challenging, but sometimes destiny can exceed all expectations. Coming back from Toronto to Brazil a month ago things looked smooth at first sight; I went through immigration, customs and was relaxing in the lounge waiting for a connecting flight to the USA.

All of a sudden, just like those movies all flights got cancelled or extremely delayed, to a point where a lady from united told me I would probably have to spend another 2 days in Canada due to the storm.

Luckily, after lots and lots (believe me when I say lots) of phone calls and discussions with agents, they found a direct flight to Brazil with only 1 seat available… To cut a long story short, 9 hours later than scheduled I got home safe and sound… I took a picture of the situation; I don’t remember ever seeing so many cancelled flights before…

  Thoughts on Golf

  Posted on 24 April 2018 in Blog

  Golf is a game I have played most of my life. I have been lucky enough to play courses in England, Scotland and Ireland. I have ventured to Le Touquet in France and the Algarve in Portugal
  
  I learned to play in East Africa where Hippo’s from the lake left their footprints on fairways and greens and these were considered natural hazards.
