Feejee

This post is being made from...Fiji!~!

Unfortunately this trip has been shit so far.  On the plane ride I had to throw up because I was incredibly hungry and there was a bit of turbulence.  The seat belt sign was switched on which meant we couldn't move around but I absolutely had to get up to go to the loo.  So I went staggering to the loo and the hostess reprimanded me a little but softened when she saw me holding the vomit bag.  When I asked her for some water she gave me a whole bottle of Fiji Water.

And during the rest of the flight she would ask me if I was feeling better.

Landed in Fiji on Saturday morning 6:40am.  Flight was delayed due to late take off.

Because I was travelling on my Aussie passport, I had to join the 'International Passport Holders' queue at passport control which turned out to be a huge pain in the ass.  Only four counters were open for a full plane.

I was one of the last people to pick up my bag from the carousel.  I bought my duty free - two Black Labels - picked up my bag from the carousel and went through Customs.  I was asked to open my suitcase at Customs.  So I obliged and  turns out it was the wrong suitcase.  So I went back to the carousel to put it back but could not find mine.  Besides the one I had picked up, there was another one on the belt but it wasn't mine.

So the conclusion was, someone had walked off with my suitcase without realising.

I lodged a report with the airport staff who were able to do some detective work on their end in tracking the woman down.  She returned my bag the next morning which is most annoying coz it meant I had nothing for a whole day.

Then my parents landed on Monday morning and we picked them up.  Got into Suva at mid-day and I have been throwing up since.  Everything that I eat and drink.

In a nutshell, I arrived on Saturday morning and so far;

1) I threw up on the plane; due to hunger and turbulence
2) some dumb bitch walked off with my suitcase (she picked the wrong one off the conveyor belt) and  I had to wait 24hrs before she returned it to me
3) I started throwing up everything I ate and drank from Sunday afternoon for two days
4) I had to get an injection on my ass
