So I have a really quick story i want to share. A couple of weeks ago my family and i went on a cruise to the Caribbean. My two friends also came with me. The cruise was a life-changing experience that I'll never forget.

However the story I want to share happened when we departed the cruise ship. The night before, all passengers need to set their luggage outside of their doorways. The stewards then take the bags to the docking area, where passengers then find their bags. I had a [edited by moderator] strong bag that I put outside of the doorway the night before. When morning came, we got off the cruise ship and headed towards the luggage pickup.

It happened that someone accidentally picked up my bag. (with all my useless yet meaningful souvenirs in it) We ended up going home in defeat.
However, a couple days later, i got a phone call from a taxi company in California. It turned out that the lady who took my bag actually left it in the taxi because she didn't know what to do with it. The taxi found my name, called me up, and then shipped my [edited by moderator] luggage back back home.

It was in perfect condition when I came. All I that was a broken was an armadillo souvenir from a Mexico port. My church clothes and expensive stuff was just fine.
Proves how much easier it is to find lost stuff.
