4:30am Wakeup for Istanbul

Shut the bloody alarm

A night with lack of sleep followed by a 4:30am wake up. My alarm went off waking the entire building. My phone was on the charger near the door. I couldn't be bothered jumping out of bed to walk all the way to the door to turn my alarm off. The problem is if my alarm doesn't turn off it gets louder and louder until it is switched off or put on snooze.

Finally after everyone screaming at me for not turning the alarm off I had to struggle out of bed in my boxers and shut the thing off. We had limited time so we all had to quickly get dressed.

We dragged our bags outside only to realise that the bloody elevalators don't work at 4:30am. They were small anyway. You can barely fit one person in there, let alone all 3 of us. So we had to drag our heavy suitcases down like 4 flights of stairs. I think I just couldn't be bothered trying to be silent. So I made enough noise to wake up the rest of the building. I figured if I have to be up they should to at 4:30am.

Why Can't I get a Taxi at 4:30am

How difficult is it to get a taxi at 4:30am. I mean there is barely anyone on the streets. You think Taxi drivers would be begging for customers. Well not in Athens. We had so many empty taxi's drive by us. We had taxi drivers refusing to take us to Syntagma Square because it was a short distance. Finally we managed to get a cab driver willing to take us there.

We arrived in Syntagma Square and waited at the bus stop This way was so much cheaper.

Athens Airport Again

Finally we arrived at Athens airport and checked our luggage in. After minor duty free shopping where I insisted I should spend my last Euro's, it was farewell time. It was an emotional farewell with Levi after the many days we spent together causing trouble around Greece.

The bitch at Maccas

After a minor passport control which lasted for over 5minutes we thought will grab some breakfast at maccas. The only thing I could eat this early in the morning was a crossiant. The only crossiant avaliable was a ham, cheese and tomato crossiant. So I asked the girl behind the counter if she could take out the ham and give me a cheese and tomato crossiant. You think I asked her to donate me her kidney or something the way she carried on. The stupid inconsiderate slutface gave me attitude. Who needs attitude at 6:30am in the morning. All I wanted was a crossiant. The nerve of the cow to treat me like I was a piece of dust. I should report the dog face to international maccas. She should be shot for treating customers like that. Anyway lucky my friend pointed out that I was paying almost $7 for a piece of crossiant that was extremely tiny. So if your reading this you maccas bitch go shove your ham, cheese and tomato crossiant up your ass. I don't want it!

Farewell Athens

I really have to stop taking thoses motion sickness tablets. They are bad news. I feel asleep on the plane. It was only a 1 hour flight. The plane landed while I was sleeping. I jumped up and panicked. Seriously it took like 5 years off my life. NEVER sleep during landing. I can't explain the feeling. Its like the plane is crashing and your falling out of the plane. You want to scream but you can't.

After Desert

After the plane landed we all got off our seats and was waiting for them to open the doors. An announcement came. We couldn't understand it. They said something about "After desert". We stood there thinking they weren't going to let us off the plane until dessert was served. Who bloody wants dessert when the plane lands. I just want to get out and see Istanbul again...
