Never have I ever been on planes or any other airborne machine. I speak this out of what I have heard; it might be wrong, if so be the case I agree to be corrected.
Airplanes of long routes such as those from Tanzania, Kenya and Uganda to America or any other destination you could think of tend to take many hours on air. Mostly ranging from 11- 18+ hours and this is so interesting.
These planes have routes same as to the buses on land. Sometimes it might be a one way flight or an exchange where you’ll change flights. In most cases these changes could be in Amsterdam or UAE for flights. (am i correct ?)
I know most of us are just like me, not well experienced with air borne travel but I am sure that you have experienced the bus routes. Here in Tanzania (proud being one), we have “daladalas” which have mini routes within the region.
Well; for the routes taken, let’s say from town in Arusha to kikatiti (suburb place , far from town). There are a few options to complete the route, either you take a bus from Arusha to Moshi(Costa) and drop by Kikatiti or take a mini bus(daladala) from arusha straight to katiti bus stand or two mini buses from arusha to usariver then another to katiti.
Even for us using the mini buses, we have got our own Amsterdam. What I mean is the detours before we reach our desired destinations. An example of a simple route from town to katiti an exchange of buses can range from one to three or even four cars depending on the day itself.
What am trying to bring in mind is the minibus exchange and even the airplane exchange in Amsterdam. c, disloyal people and even betrayal on the way.
Life without struggle or hardship of any kind is not that sweet, there’s a say that no pain no Gain… meaning you can’t gain something new without working for it. When I say working I mean struggling or fighting hardship, challenges, stress, disappointments, disloyal people and even betrayal on the way to achieve it all..
So having detours from your big picture or plan will always give you the advantage of learning lessons upon lessons such that when you reach the big picture you’ll appreciate what you have…
