Lost and Found

After numerous phone calls back and forth between myself and the New Zealand Airlines baggage center in L.A., my bike was finally located, flown to L.A., and delivered to my place today. It apparently had never left Brisbane in the first place. Arghh! That's five days from the time I left Brisbane to the time they delivered the bike to me. I am glad it turned up again, but I really hope they do a better job and actually put the box on the plane when I leave for NZ at the end of December. I don't want to spent a quarter of my time in NZ holed up in Auckland waiting for my bike.
