Not so lucky

06.May 2013 - Bergamo


I was very glad to hear that i could come to Italy. It was my first time travelling by plane, so i was really excited. We packed our things and went through the metal detector and baggage checking. I was calm, until the airport worker asked me: "I need you to unpack the bag, because we think you have a saw in it and it's not allowed to take it on the plane". At first i didn't understand what was going on, but then i remembered, that we forgot one of our clocks in the baggage, the one which is made from an old saw. So we were trying to convince the worker to let us take the clock with us, because it couldn't do any harm and we really needed it. we even offered them to buy the clock from us. Unfortunatelly, we weren't lucky and the clock was confiscated. The good thing about it, is that they didn't throw out the clock, they put it in an usefull things box. All in all, it was the first and the last lost in our trip and we are still making jokes about it. (Ieva)
