We got to the main local shopping area and met the agent. He said it was not ready ao we kept waiting, for a loooooong time. Meanwhile we learned a few things from K which was interesting about Tanzania. Apparently they all love chubby women and do not prefer 'chopsticks' haha!
Finally the agent came back (must be at least 45 min) and our other tough task were to cut the SIM down to micro and nano respectively. I should have bought a punch and brought along with me to save time! Coz I think we spent at least another hour trying to get it right! The agent was not that experienced and got Marge's SIM cut wrong (the contacts should be off center but he had them centered which did not work for her. They ended up having to cut it even smaller but good thing it worked at the end.
For my iphone 5S nano card, I doubt they have seen it befpre and since it was Sunday, it was difficult to find the tools. A was smart and went to get a Gilette razor and the guys all helped to trim the card down to size
In the end both of the card worked and i think we must have spent 2 hours doing this omg! We needed to wait for the SIM cards to be activated fully before we can get the bundle and we would leave it till next morning to do so.
By the time we got back to the hotel it was 7:30pm already! The hotel gate opened very smoothly and Marge thought it was automatic but in fact there was a guy opening manually for us haha. We had a good laugh.
Our other group members were dining already and we joined them after we got back. We did pay our assistant guide a good tip thanking them for half day assisting us.
