Busan, South Korea – Seattle, Washington, USA ^39
We flew into Seattle in the early hours of the morning, and what a
delightful sight! The interesting part was arriving in Seattle before
leaving Beijing. I was, as usual, dead tired, collected my luggage,
hailed a taxi, and headed to downtown Seattle. The first stop was at
a bicycle shop to drop the bicycle off, and then to the hostel, which I
had booked beforehand. Once checked in, I was horrified to discover
that I had left behind my backpack holding all my valuables in the
taxi. In a panic, I contacted Yellow Taxi Cabs. Unfortunately, I had no
number or name to give them, but they had a lost-and-found section
where I could leave my details. I was devastated! Feeling exhausted,
I took a nap and, when I woke up, I found my lost bag on the table
next to my bed. I was overjoyed and did a little happy dance. The
taxi driver turned out to be a sweet Somali guy, to whom I chatted
non-stop from the airport. I had a feeling that if anyone were to
return the bag, it would be him. So, a big thank you to this unknown
Somali taxi driver.
