Bananan Trip
http://ameblo.jp/banananoki/theme-10008988356.htmlINTRODUCTION
Only 10 days trip, but this made my image about AFRICA totally different this time. Was very impressive. I would like to write some blog wishing this could help William, who works for people in Africa, even a bit. Later I will translate this blog into English for William. Our trip started with members: the couple of Banana Girl (BG) and Banana Boy (BB) from Japan and the trio of William, Walter and Msuya from Africa.
Very quick, once decided
May, 2008. BB was chatting with BG over some drinks. “Well, I wanna go to NgoroNgoro!” It sounded very unfamiliar for BB with unknown pronunciation and feeling.
“What is that?”
“It is just place like heaven!” BG answered to BB.
This triggered our trip to Kenya and Tanzania this time. For BB, it will be really the first experience, which BB never thought about up to now. It is Africa. Well, actually it was quite easy for BB to have decided to take action quickly enough to reserve flights in one shot, because BB just loved BG. BB used miles of Star Alliance. 100K miles per one person x 2. Narita→Bangkok→Zurich→Nairobi→Zurich→Shanghai→Narita. All in all, it would be 70 Hrs around. Because of limited availability of Star Alliance, there are no other better flights. However those are the flights obtained from some lady of Star Alliance. BB pushed and threatened her to get them with all the efforts. So, BB could have successful feeling with those tickets.
Buuuuuuuuuut, “would you please make cash remittance of JPY 190K by the day after tomorrow?” she said to me. What? Yes, yes, yes, it is the surcharge for fuel of airplanes!! And also taxes!! Huuuuuuuu, we got them by mile-deposit, but actually it did cost a lot. This is the timing in June 2008 and departure of our flight is on 1 of N month and our return flight is on xx of N month arrival at Narita. OK, anyway, these are the flight we got with all the effort! Just do it! Do AFRICA! Decided very easily at once..
Well, a lot of things to do..
Actually, it took pretty much more efforts from this moment. BB has no idea about Africa. Because we got flights by miles, we have to arrange trip program by ourselves.
