Glad you got the laptop back, but the loss of the primo seat and the obviously uncaring person who took it would have tipped the balance for me. Glad it all worked out in the end, though. This Booby image was the only one I could pick yesterday from all the small thumbnails, and it is a real pleasure to see it larger. A contest winner!

As we departed our hotel, the travel agent came by with luggage tags. I asked for help with part of the tags and then asked where to put my and my wife’s bags so they would get on the bus to the airport. She said she would make sure the bags got on the bus. Well, we got to the airport and no bags. Fortunately there was a lot of time and after many phone calls our bags arrived on a taxi. But the lesson–which I already knew–is that I must take responsibility for my own bags. I’m glad it (mostly) worked out for you. Lovely booby image.
