first day

Friday, October 12, 2007

The plane touched down at around 4:30 am but I managed to get out of the airport at around 7 am.   The hotel service staff who fetched me in the airport has spent almost two hours waiting.  There were a lot of people of different nationalities at the immigration counter.  This has somewhat caused the delay.  Good thing is that I never encountered any problem with my papers.

Since I do not have the local currency, I immediately had my dollar exchanged to dirhams.  The amount is enough to buy a local SIM card.  I will be using the new number to keep in touch in PH instead of the roaming number.

I had my first breakfast at the hotel which is inclusive of my one month stay.  I am staying at Winchester Hotel.  Just click the link if you want to have an idea of this place.  The rent is so expensive but it is part of my package; but I have to move to a new place after a month.

I went to the grocery before lunch time to buy something for my lunch.  I got two cup noodles,  milk, mango juice and banana.  I also bought a dishwashing liquid but forgot to buy  sponge.  I will be going back to the grocery store later to get one plus a bottle of water perhaps.

This is it for now.  The feeling is tough… very tough… I just keep on praying for more strength and comfort.
