Stranded

Sometimes things go a little rough traveling. For example, you can't get a train reservation so you have to spend an extra night in a hotel. Or you forget a towel. Or, as I have recently experienced, you go to a port to catch a ferry, only to realize there is no boat.

......

What was to be a 2 hour stop in Bari to transfer between train and ferry has turned into a 24 hour ordeal, thanks to the fact that the ferry doesn't seem to run on Sunday. Nevermind the fact that all credible evidence (see this) says that there should have indeed been a ferry. Eh, I guess it's stuff like this that teaches you grand life lessons. Like, never return to Bari, or fly. Whatever. At least I have my newly purchased jar of Justice League endorsed Nutella to help dry my tears.

Moral of the story, stuff happens. Just deal. Hopefully you'll all hear from me again, in either Athens or Istanbul.
