so the trip from mexico to geneva was such a drama. i left on the 8th and was meant to get there on the 9th...............................well no i arrived on the 11th!!
this is how it went
-flew from mexico to NY in the morning, got there at 5, picked up my luggage to put on the connecting flight to london and headed to the next terminal to check in, only when i arrived the flight to london was cancelled. i was like fucking brilliant!!!!!!
so i stood in a line for 2 hours to see if i could get another flight, the girl at the desk managed to get me a flight with air france the following day at 5pm......great stuck for 24hrs! so i was like ok ill take that flight seeing as i have no other option. then i went to collect my bag so i could go to the hotel, and they had lost it! fucking idiots, so i then spent the next 5hrs arguing with the stupid people that they should get off their arses and go look for it, but the lazy ppl were sooooooo unhelpful. eventually at midnight they found it and i headed to the hotel.
next day i went back to the airport, checked in with air france and flew to NY, my bag was on a connecting flight to geneva & all i had to do was get to the right terminal and fly out, so i get on the plane all strapped in ready to go, happy that im warm and getting closer.............BUT..........NO......."were sorry to inform you ladys and gentlemen but this flight is now cancelled due to the geneva airport been closed from snow, you will all have to get off the plane, collect your luggage and go to zone 3 to talk to our staff to get another flight"
well i wanted to scream! i could not believe it!
so i then stood in another line for 2 hours, only to find out we had to catch a train to geneva with a 3hr stop in Lyon (the most freezing shit, packed train station in the world)...so off we went on the train, only problem is we didnt get there till 10pm & it was too late to get to sion that night.......so another night in a hotel and set off again the next day to catch the train to sion, then catch the bus to Nendez.....
i was so glad to see gemma waiting for me at the bus stop, as the past 4 days were terrible!!
anyhow this place is beautiful and worth the wait. there is 13 of us staying in an apartment and the snow is great! had lots of powder to ski on this morning & the pubs are really cool. so will keep you updated on the next few weeks. should be lots of fun!
