Russia - Adventure trip

It was many years ago when my parents surprised me with a trip to Russia
for 2 weeks.

All good and beautiful, I began the preparations waiting for the day of
departure.

On the morning of my departure, my mother advised me that it would be


good to put a tag with my name in case I lost my suitcase. I, stubborn by nature,
politely refused and went to the airport.

The flight lasted almost 4 hours. Tired but hoping it's worth the effort. At the
airport, I don't know how, I last got to the luggage elevator. The guide told me to
hurry up when the bus left for the hotel. When I got to the tape, I only saw one
suitcase, mine. I took it and headed to the bus. On the bus, the guide explained that
we have little time at the hotel to change, that we have to get to the Hermitage
Museum in time to visit it on that day.

I got to the room and got in the shower. When I left, I opened my suitcase ...
and to my surprise, I discovered that it was not mine, but a gentleman's. The funny
thing was that they were only men's clothing ... and nothing he could wear. I called
the guide, I explained what happened to me, he called the airport, from where they
told him that they would look for my suitcase and that they would send it to the
hotel.

I put on the same clothes and went to the museum. Days passed and my
suitcase did not want to return. The 2 weeks have passed and nothing. We returned
to Romania, where we filed another complaint and where I was told that I had to
wait. I waited almost 2 months until the suitcase came back to me.

Moral: When someone with more experience tells you something that might
be useful to you, at least listen to it and try to follow its advice!
