I've flown A LOT in the past three years. A LOT. I don't always love the crowds, the delays or the turbulance, but in general, it's always been a good experience.
We flew back from a week's holiday in Cape Town on Tuesday afternoon. On a completely seperate side note, Cape Town is an awesome city! I LOVED it. I could live there. But back to my issue at hand. When we got home Tuesday night, we immediately went to dinner with friends. It was late when I unloaded our bags and I basically dumped everything into the laundry basket. On Wednesday, I decided to do some wash and noticed that I was missing one of my favorite cardigans and the tank I wear under it. I was REALLY irritated with myself for not checking the hotel room better when we checked out, though I couldn't imagine how I could overlook it as DH did a good job making sure we didn't miss anything. I chalked it up to lesson learned. I was getting dressed for dinner tonight and started digging for another top I took with me that wasn't really worn on the trip. I couldn't find it. So I dumped the leftover laundry out again and looked all thru it. It's gone. I specifically remember packing it. I KNOW it was there.
I'm reasonably certain someone STOLE SOME OF MY CLOTHES. From my bag! I never, ever put valuables or electronics in my bags as I know things can be stolen, but clothes! Where the heck else am I supposed to put them? I would have carried on, but I had liquids and gels.... Sigh. At least they didn't steal all of them......
