Of COURSE, my residency card was shipped on Friday, after I left on Thursday. This dang card was supposed to take SIX MONTHS to arrive, and instead, they sent it in SIX WEEKS. I thought I was safe in traveling. If I don't pick it up within 6 days of delivery, it goes back to AIMA, and good luck in getting one in MONTHS.
AIMA sends it with the restrictions of a signature BY THE PERSON.
SO, called the airline, and canceled my hotel reservations, and will return to Portugal on Tuesday. I have a trip scheduled to Luxembourgh on Monday, and cannot get my money back. The hotel in Bruges won't refund my money either. PLUS, Brussels Air gave me a discount flying home, but still....
DRATS, but there is always time for another trip, and LOVE Brussels. It is lively, friendly and love the sights.
