Getting to Manaus

The flight from Sao Paulo was transferred from Gate 20 to Gate 14A, and although there was an announcement, it was made in Portuguese. It certainly would have saved me some stress and running if I had understood the announcement. However, as luck would have it, I noticed that boarding was not happening in a timely fashion at my gate, not to mention the fact that a lot of people had disappeared from the area I was in. So, duh, I realized it was time to get offline and figure out where the heck I was supposed to be.

Check monitors. Flight 8696. There it is. Gate: 14A. Where the heck is that?

Luckily it was just a short shuffle down a hallway, to the left and down a flight of stairs. The bus was waiting as people boarded and they told me there was still plenty of time before they moved us out to the tarmac.
