Tickets on Hold

I made my way to the travel agency after school. I had to wait a few minutes for Matsumotosan to be available. She is the only fluent English speaker there. I found it different that she had to call an office to find out the prices for available flights. When I went to travel cuts at McMaster, the travel agent looked everything up on her computer. I asked for the cheapest dates at the end of December, going in to January. The best price turned out to fit neatly into my student's vacation period. She's holding the tickets for me right now. I'm going to go back tomorrow with my passport and bank card so I can actually book the flight.
