Motorbycle arrival- Anchorage





Our bike was supposed to arrive at 7am. The Hostel manager offered to take us to the airport. This time took only 10 minute…..We took all the documents that James Cargo gave us and went to the airport looking for the customs clearance.
We explained that we were expecting a motorbike from UK and that we needed a document from customs authorizing us to get the bike from FedEx. He looked at us very surprised and asked us to wait, but he did not have any idea what he should do. He started making some calls and came to us and asked only for one copy of pezao’s passport, by the way he did not had his original but he was happy with only the photocopy. He stamped and signed on our papers and gave us all the documents necessary to take the bike, however he never asked us to pay for the fees that you should pay in order to get the bike. We saved around £400 heheheheh and then we went straight way to the cargo. We spoke to one of FedEx staff and they asked us to wait. After 20 minutes she appeared and asked us to go to the car park in order to receive our bike. She came carrying our bike on forklift. She dropped and left us on car park with this huge box and just said that she would come back to collect the box. We looked at each other and started laughing. We never imagined that this would be that easy.
After that we prepared the bike and went to the hotel. So many people were curious about trip and we stayed all day talking to people and preparing for the next days. We organized to go to a Because of the time difference we slept during all afternoon and woke up around 5 in the morning.
