Just a quick update. I arrived in Buenos Aires today a full 24 hours late (my United 10:10 PM flight had already departed).
Despite my late arrival in Buenos Aires, I was told that luggage was still in Washington DC.
Undeterred (well, maybe a “little deterred) I nonetheless took a cab to my hotel. Later that evening my luggage was delivered to my hotel (that despite the fact that their we’re no more Buenos Aires flights scheduled for the day).
Clearly, eaither someone getteng bad information or flat out lying! (I favor the former, but fear the latter more closely represents the truth).
After inspecting my luggage I discovered that the lens on my Nikon camera had somehow become dislodged and now would no longer mount on the camera.
The challenge now would be to find a camera repair show in Buenos Aires and hope that it could be repaired.
It seems that “Murphy” is in full control of the situation. I’ll you keep you posted as to how it’s going, but in the mean time there will, obviously, be NO PICTURES (YUK!).
