When non-revenue goes right!!!!!
So as we last left off we were in DFW non-rev limbo. Well the god's were kind to us and we got the last 2 business class seats.....together no less. We even left on time and arrived right on schedule.....what about that. Got thru customs with the smoothest of ease and then we get to the Lufthansa gate for Napoli and oooopppsss they "are a bit oversold" the lovely german lady say's. But she says stay close.....well you don't have to tell us twice. We wait till the bitter end with no reservations in Napoli....how could we, we don't know if we will even go to Napoli...we may end up in Rome. Nimble fingered Don on his trusty ipad has written a driver in Napoli on the off chance we should make it, would he be available to drive us to Positano, and then further research gives us possible hotels if we should make it....but all is very fluid.
As the last of the Lufthansa passengers board.....what we hear them call our name!!!! Joy...but without any time to write the hotel...we walk down the jetbridge trying to email the hotel.....an damn the wifi goes out. So off we go without any idea how, when or where to.
But once we get to Napoli, we find a wonderful man holding a sign with the name "Don Norris". He is there waiting for us and then after helping us call the original hotel that we had in mind....only to hear that yes they are indeed booked. He helps us find a wonderful place. Beautiful view of the ocean, right across from the bus stop that takes you into the heart of Positano. All is well....we can breath...the trip can now begin in earnest.
