Moving in the footsteps of Pastor Roy, I did a classic Roy thing the other night...
I was awoken at about 1:30am by some incredible noisy kids in the apartment above us on the 5th floor. Our hotel/resort has been inundated with Russian and Italian students taking their summer breaks. Anyway, they were rioting above us and were on their balcony, so the sound was coming straight into our place. I got up and went out there, if not to get them a tongue lashing, at least to see what they were up to. I decided to close the sliding balcony door behind me to hopefully protect a sleeping Judy from the din. However, unlike our Australian sliding doors which cannot lock when closing from the outside, I heard that dreaded "click" as the door locked shut behind me. Locked on the balcony at 1:30am!! Yikes.
I sat on the plastic chair and tried to think what to do? Judy would not respond to my knocking and I didn't want to call out and have everyone come out onto their balconies to see my predicament. I sat there for 1.5 hours with mosquitoes, heat and noisy Russians above, before Judy finally responded to my tapping on the window (I later discovered that she heard from the outset, but thought that I was asleep beside her and was too frightened to go out).
Anyway, I thought I'd record my (correct and unembelished) version of the event before other versions started to spread.
Today, we're off to Mdenia, the ancient capital... a walled city with narrow little streets, about 4000 years old. Pics to come
