Ovalteenie, a couple of tips. When you don't understand what is being said, say so immediately not when they have rambled on for a couple of minutes.
Also, most dealing you will have as a tourist are going to be questions and answers. When a waiter comes over to you in a restaurant, he is likely to be asking if you are ready to order, if you want a drink, etc., not about your in growing toe nail! In these circumstances you can almost prepare in your mind what is likely to be asked and your responses. Same but in reverse if you are asking a question _ think about the replies you are likely to get. Listen to what people are saying as opposed to panicking!
Don't worry too much about grammar ( the only verb tenses you really need are past, present, and future); a wide vocab is more useful.
As for the ticket, ask for the booking/ ticket office, pass over any paperwork if you have any, and say you have reserved a ticket for............. You may be asked for ID.
Enjoy yourself!
