Hostage Crisis: Qantas Holds Keener Back


Well, maybe it wasn't quite that dramatic…

I said my good-byes to the Heidrich's and other folks in Brisbane in the past 24 hours. When I came up to the Qantas counter, (the bloke looked like a twin of BootsnAll writer Craig Hermes, he told me blah, blah, blah - my passport runs out in 5 months, you are required to have a passport that is valid for 6 months. His supervisor came over and they called Sydney and a few other folks.

The end result is that I need to go to the Indonesian Consulate for an exemption or something like that. They re-sceduled my flight for Tuesday. Let’s hope that I can sort it out by then. Until then and with all this extra time, I will have 3 pieces coming up for you…

1. Peregian Beach with Travel God Jay and wife Debbie
2. Meeting Brendan: One of the Original Boots’n'All boyz
3. I can’t remember the other one…

That bloody passport! Good to hear you met up with Bren though. Can’t wait to hear about it.

I just mopped your room, that means I’ve got to do it again on Tuesday.

Six month rule applies for most Asean countries..Crazy as they only give you a 60 day tourist visa on arv.
Cheers

Next time I go to Oz I’m going to try and set the same exact thing up with my passport just so I can get stranded at the Heidrichs. Rough life Sean. ;-) Unfortunately I think mine is good for ten years. I’ll have to see what 5 mo passports are going for on the black market? Do they sell those in Bali? ;-) Good news is that I’ve upgraded my Netscape and can now post comments to your blog!
