PNG (Sept.) Day 3: "The Prodigal Suitcase Returns!"
Since this is a holiday weekend, it seemed urgent to find out about the missing suitcase. We tried phoning several different numbers in PNG without getting through to anyone, then finally phoned the airline in Australia. Australia said the suitcase flew to PNG the day after we did. (Yahoo!...Nobody claimed it by mistake or took it from the conveyor belt.)
After meeting with a lovely graduating student who is considering applying to work with our ministry, Eva took us to the airport to investigate our missing suitcase. There was no one at the airline desk at the international terminal...so we walked to the domestic terminal. After making some inquiries, we found out our suitcase was at the international terminal...and they offered to get it for us. Never had a suitcase looked almost like a family member before! I was so glad to see it! Eva, her daughter Gail, Dan and I went out and ate a "fatted" chicken in celebration!
