“We were really looking forward to our parasailing trip, however when we got to the marina, the car that picked us up was not allowed through the gates, after 5 minutes of arguing with the guard, we were asked to get out of the car and the driver took down to the marina, where it took another 5 minutes for him to locate the trip operator.
