Locked in!
Day 90. That's a nice even number. So I got up early for my flight to Lima in Peru. I came down stairs where it was all dark and pushed the hotel door. It was padlocked! I tried again and it wasn't budging! There was nobody at reception...I WAS LOCKED IN!!!! WTF????? Seriously? I felt a sudden panic rise in me. Not about missing my flight; I was very early. Just the being locked in thing and feeling trapped! I did not like that at all! I started getting angry. How can they padlock you into a hotel for God sake! I rattled the doors to try and get some attention. Perhaps an alarm will go off. That would work. Nope. I went round and into the reception and started looking through drawers for a key. At that point a guy appeared. I have no idea whether he'd just started his shift or simply went to the toilet (if so why were the lights off and no note?) I showed him how angry I was with my eyebrows.
Anyway, I got to Lima at 11am and my flight from Lima to Atlanta wasn't until 2am the next day so I booked into a cheap hostel so I could get some pre jetlag sleep. This worked perfectly as I was very rested and ready to take on the world at 2am!!
