Write down / register everything

So today's blog should be a lesson to everyone and if it is the worst thing that happens to me while traveling then so be it......I purchased a travel card to use for Australia which allows me to hop on and off the public transportation which includes the ferries and trains with this card you have to swipe on and off. As I went to swipe off I realized I did not have my card.....oh crap where is the stupid bloody thing and because I do not have it that cost me the bus which was waiting so now instead of being on my way I am now sitting at a bus stop waiting nearly 2 hours for the next one.....

Now here is the thing for you to do. Go through your wallet and passport etc and write down or better yet scan the cards/numbers or take a picture of them so you can easily find them in case a situation like this happens. Sometimes things happen when you are travelling and well. Guess it is time for a tin of tuna. This sucks but all you can do is laugh about it and hope that someone else gets the joy of using my pass hopefully someone who needs it more than I do.

p.s.

make sure you scan take a picture of both sides of your cards as well....as a quick test what are your card numbers, expiry dates and the phone numbers off hand......if you do not know this information off hand then you are already in trouble.

p.s

Found the little bugger in a hidden compartment in my wallet......one difficult thing about backpacking is you everything with you and it is easy for things to become hidden on you. :)
