Heathrow Terminal 4 - check in:
`you might not be able to fly tonight`!!!!!
``ey?????? you see, you see, I knew there would be a problem...``

Despite several phone calls to the Argentinian embassy and TAM airlines who assured us that there would not be a problem with our visas, we had this fright just moments before our departure. The problem was that we booked our return ticket to Buenos Aires coming back 6 months later, which could have appeared that we´re gonna overstay our 90 days of tourist visa. However, as we explained to the embassy and TAM and now tried to convince the lady at the check-in desk, we were planning to go through 7 different countries in South America and would not stay longer than a month in Argentina!!!
Eventually after some phone calls they let us onto the plane. And that´s how the fun began! Phew!!! :)))



V slovencine:
Na letisku Heathrow v utorok 29 Septembra 2009
Pani pri check-in: `neviem ci poletite dnes vecer`
Eva, Bea & Stanca: `cooooo?!!!` ja som to vedela, ja som to vedela, ze budu problemy...

Napriek viacerym telefonatom na Argentinsku ambasadu a na Airolinky TAM, ktore nas ubezpecili, ze problem s vizami mat nebudeme, skoro sme dostali infarkt na letisku ked nam oznamili ze nas mozno nebudu moct pustit na let. V com bol hacik bolo to, ze sme si objednali spiatocny listok do Buenos Aires s navratom o 6 mesiacov neskor co sa mohlo zdat ze tam ostavame dlhsie nez mame povolene v ramci nasich 90 dni turistickych viz. Ako sme to aj vysvetlili ambasade a TAM-ku predtym a teraz sa snazili presvedcit aj tu milu pani na check-in-gu, my sme planovali ist cez 7 roznych krajin v latinskej Amerike pocas tych 6-tich mesiacov a preto nezostavame v Argentine dlhsie ako mesiac!!! Nakoniec po niekolkych telefonatoch nas pustili na let. A takto sa nasa sranda ´fun´ zacala! vydych :)))
