...and now for the REST of the story... (let's see who remembers that

)
Well....I picked up some gifts for family and friends. Had one bag that had a gift for kcos along with a couple of expensive gifts for my wife and daughter (custom name painted chinese fans with display stands, and a jade charm and necklace for Karen)...and another bag with a Shenzhen cup from Starbucks for my wife (I bring back one from everywhere I go for her).
After a 15 hour flight, I stopped at the restroom right before getting in line for customs, which was a mile long. I set everything down right behind me while doing my business. After the relief set in...I turned to gather my things....AND BOTH BAGS WERE GONE!!
I can't believe in the short time I had my back turned....someone took only the two gift bags and were gone. I have been so upset about it, and the airline isn't willing to do anything about it! It was the one thing my 9yr old asked for, and took me forever to find. They got almost $300 worth of merchandise....which isn't much, but when you are talking about Chinese hand fans...that's pretty expensive.
And here I was thinking the Asian culture was all about honor....guess every culture has their slugs and rifraf....just never would have thought it would cross my path in the airport coming off the same flight I was on.
