Today and yesterday was one of misshaps. First I stepped out of the bus and spained a muscle in my leg, I am limping around, althoug faster tody then yesterday. I had a message, whish was painful but the massage person, a man isicated that it would help.
Then when I checked in for my flight they discovered that I had made mistake of one day in the passport expiry date and they would not check me in without a new one. I didnt actually panic but I was prepared to. The tourist information people didnt know what to do but the sent me to the immigration office, my flight was in 3 hours. I began to limp quickly in the direction they indicated, when I saw a sign “Tourist Police we are here to help.” They lent me their computer and I found a visa service online, for 177$ They emailed me a letter which allowed me to get on the plane. Hopefully this drama is over, and I will be able to enter Vietnam.
We had a similar situation years ago. Somehow we didn’t realize we needed a visa to get from Cambodia to Vietnam. Our flight was leaving in a few hours. But we paid someone who paid someone and we got the Visa in time!
I hope your ankle feels better!
