KTM vs KTN


    When we started this trip at 4:30am, I did not think one little letter could make such a difference.  What I learned today…KTM is the airport code for Kathmandu (where we are supposed to be right now).   KTN is the airport code for Ketchikan, Alaska (where Delta wanted to send us). 
   Here is the scene.  We have spent several hours in front of the Delta service area to be told we were supposed to have an infant ticket.  For all of you parents out there this is common knowledge.  However, after 4 previous phone calls to Delta they told us it would be fine…not fine.  We finally got the tickets sorted and about to head off when someone caught that the ticket was going to Ketchikan, Alaska.  The nice lady at China Southern finally asked us if “we wanted to board without the infant since her ticket was the messed up one”.  I did not respond, although I thought about itJ
   All in all we are still in Sydney for the night and trying this over tomorrow.  We are hoping for better results.  We knew it was going to be an adventure, but from the first second.  True JAM style… Accepting all prayers as this trip has already proven to be exciting.      
P.S. The picture above was taken after Anabel told Josh we were going to Alaska instead of Nepal.
