Thieves

2 more days till I get on the flight.

Had a bit of a drama with my finally returned bag last night. Chucked it in the front seat of the 4-runner while we went to see Little Miss Sunshine (excellent movie by the way-very funny) and we come out to get in the truck and my bag is gone!!! Its dark, its pouring rain and it has all my personal valuable things in it! I was shocked, so angry and desperate to find it. We searched all over the train tracks, in garbage bins, in bushes in the rain. I was just about to give up until I saw a little well-lit park. I ran in there, searched everywhere, ran up the path and sure enough, there is all my belongings out in the mud, up the path, jewelry strewn out...I cannot tell you the wave of relief sweeping through me. I was hysterical, gathered up my belongings and took them home to dry. We were soaked but sooo relieved.

Trying to pack it all in now. I will most likely haveto pay extra for the heavy luggage. Oh well, I am freaking moving to another country for crying out loud!! 2 bags, 1 carry on + purse, a laptop and a guitar. Who could do better than this??
