On April 8, 1995, five tourists set off from Minneapolis Airport. They were very excited, for it was their first trip to Mexico.
After five hours, they landed in Acapulco, a tourist city in Mexico. It was very hot, but they walked happily to the Customs . The official examined their passports carefully, finding there was no visa on it. They were told that it was a must for them to enter the country. They explained to the official that they had got in touch with the Mexican Consulate (领事馆) in Chicago and was told no visa was needed, but the official still did not let them pass.
So they began to call the US Consulate in Acapulco, but did not get the problem done. After they had worked for three hours, they were told to leave for the USA at once.
They arrived in Detroit that same night after six hours' trip. To their joy, they were shown into a room where a lady official in the airport asked them to tell her their story from the very beginning. And then she suggested they go back to Mimmeapolis Airport to get their money back. But the five tourists still wanted to go to Mexico instead. Then she had to tell them to stay in a nearby hotel for a night and call to see her the next morning.
They were so tired that they slept very well and woke up late Sunday morning. To their surprise, they saw snow and ice outside. They called the airport but nobody was there. In the afternoon they decided to go to the airport to see Mary again. Finally they caught her and had a long talk with her. She tried the best to manage their plane tickets but they had to get the visas before 12:00 Monday morning.
They took a taxi and went to look for Mexican Consulate according to the address given by Mary. But the gate was shut. So they drove to a small town near Canada and took some pictures there. They got up early on Monday morning and went there again for visas. After waiting for an hour or so, the official turned up and they got what they wanted by paying $ 17 each. They drove happily to the airport, knowing that their holiday really started now.
