Lena's luggage was temporarily lost on her trip home from Sweden. While waiting in line, a young woman whose luggage was also lost turns to us and complains "I don't get it, it's really not that complicated."
I was good and just said "Right" and nodded in agreement. But I was thinking that it is pretty complicated. Lena puts her luggage on an airplane in a tiny town 8,000 miles away, the luggage has to travel to the other side of the planet, and be transferred between the four different connecting flights, interleaved with 5 gazillion other pieces of luggage, and arrive in our little 10-person airport.
Luckily Lena's bag was located in a back room of the airport.
