problems as soon as i arrive. no accomodation booked. i am told to step aside as my case is passed up three levels of management because nobody wants to take any responsibility for making a decision - apparently they have NEVER dealt with this exceptional circumstance before. an hour later they finally decide to ask how much money i have. i fan my travellers checks at their bulging eyes and i'm granted immediate entry. so far the guidebook is spot on :-)
