Will's phone has not worked for quite a while as a phone. It gets a lot of use as his reading devise, and we did not really need a phone. But now that we are traveling on our own and hoping to make some arrangements, a phone would be good -- even if calls are expensive.
So what we needed was a "14-year-old" to help get it straightened out. We went to the mall in Southampton to look for a guidebook. I was overwhelmed with the number of guidebooks. There were books for each possible small region, as well as one overall book for the whole of Europe. Since we do not know what we are going to do, and we are carrying our gear, I ended up not buying any books. I guess it is all on line today anyway....
But we did find an Apple store, and a young lady who looked to be 14, with 3 facial piercings, helped Will for a considerable time with his phone. She was getting ready to give up -- and tried rebooting the SIM. Now we are carrying a working phone.
