More Paper Work

Tuesday November 11

I had to go to Quito to meet with Judith at her sister’s office. I had to get two papers from government offices. This is for the process to get Jayne visa.

There’s always more red tape in this country! They already have a record of me from a previous time that I got my own visa.

So we went to one office where you get a paper for a police check – this happened rather quickly. Then we went to the “Movement Migration” office. We had to wait an hour there.

From there, I wanted to go to the bank and transfer money from my euro account to my dollar account. When we got there we were told that the exchange office closed at 4pm (it was about 4.30pm at the time). However, we were told that we could go to another mall and have this done. So we went there. Then we were told that they don’t do it there!?

Judith and I have coffee and a little something to eat.

It looks like I have to go back tomorrow to Quito.
