Arrived

"Did you get the bag?" "No, you had it, didn't you take it on the plane?"

No way! We didn't really leave our suitcase at the gate in Miami, did we? After all, we carefully crafted how we would journey through the airport with two strollers, two car seats, one carry-on suitcase, one laptop bag, one backpack, one Barbie backpack, and a couple jackets. Now we got off the plane in Philadelphia, and our hearts sank at the thought of having to replace all our clothes and toiletries.

We called MIA lost and found. Nothing. We called American Airlines lost and found. Nope. We called Gate D29. No answer. We called a friend that works at the airport. He said that he would check of our later that afternoon. Ok. That's about all we can do. Let's just plan for living in Philly for three days without our bag.

Well, before we leave the airport for the rental car agency, let's go talk to the local Philly AA baggage people and see if they can help us. Maybe they can call someone in Miami. We got to their office and guess what we saw? The missing suitcase!

Evidently, as we were gate checking the strollers, we left the suitcase right outside the plane. Someone must have put it on the plane at the last minute. There it was. Thank you Lord!


We are staying at the Ronald McDonald house in Camden, NJ. This place is awesome. We'll try to post pics later.
