Hamdani Family Home

Luckily, Gregg's phone got a signal (Two tumbs up for Verizon!), he called 911 right away. And Didi got signal too, he then called Steve (Novi's husband) and told him what happened, just in case Gregg's called got disconnected, we told somebody that we got stucked. Didi kept telling Steve, "this is serious Steve, we're not fu***ing lying, we got stucked in elevator", but maybe Steve thought we were just playing around.
(we found out the next day, that actually Steve thought that we were joking when Didi told him what happened, he thought that it was just a way to get him back to Gregg's party)

After 30 minutes, the 911 arrived, but they couldn't come inside the building. And Gregg didn't know what the access code to open the door. They even tried to press the #s for other tenants, but nobody at home. Thanks to Kresna, he remembered the universal code, and apparently that number works. So they were able to come inside the building.

It tooked them quite a while to open the door on the 3th floor. After they were able to open it, they instructed us to open the elevator door. When the door opened, we got fresh air. Oohh that felt good.
The opening was quite small, they wanted us to get out from that opening. But oh well, even Trisia (the smallest among us) couldn't get in.

The Firemen couldn't figure it out how to operate the elevator, it was strange they didn't have key for that. Gregg was busy calling the Elevator company. Didi told the Firemen that maybe he can open one of the panel to make the opening a little bigger. Eventough they told Didi not to do it, or didn't touch anything, Didi insisted he could do it, and he asked them to hand him the tools. They did, and Didi was able to open the panel and made it a little bit bigger. Yeeahhh....That's my boy!! During that time, Didi and Gregg was very calm and was able to handle the situation.

When the opening was a little bigger, they told us to hand over our bags/purse, jackets or anything that might get stuck on our way out.
Oh well my camera too, I had to stop took pictures.
Then we started to get out one by one. Man that was quite something.
Trissia got out first, then Michelle, Karlina, Me, Kathy, Novi, Alvin, Andry, Kresna, Antos, Didi, Reza and the last one was our Captain, Mr. Gregg. As soon as I was safe back on the 3rd floor, I just ran, grabbed my camera again, and started shooting. Unfortunately no picture of me when I was being lifted up by the Firemen.
After our safe returned we gave applaus to all the Firemen who saved us, and also we took picture with them. Thank you guys!

Reza told us later, that he got stucked on his chest, but the Firemen pulled him hard, that was why he got bruises on his chest. Oh poor Reza.

Well Thank God, everything was oke. This experience was something that I don't think we will ever forget.

We got home around 2.30 am, then Gregg called he said that he had a little chat with the Firemen, and they said maybe they can have beers with the girls...hahahahaaaaa....I think we can arrange that, as long as we don't have to get stuck again in the elevator.
