Humanity is Amazing!

After we had blogged yesterday, we decided to go to the Casa Verde for supper as they were having live music, i.e. reggae, folk. It was a beautiful place on the Caribbean Sea. We enjoyed a delicious meal, conversation with a very interesting Italian traveller and listened to great music. I decided to take a picture and could not find my camera. I looked in my bag, Gerald looked in his bag, but no luck. This was very upsetting. We decided to retrace our step to hopefully find it.

We went back to the restaurant we decided not to stay at -- but no luck. We went back to an internet we had been to -- but no luck. We then decided to go back to the other internet we had been at; hoping that they were still open as it was past 9.00 p.m. They were still open and we went in, to the computer we had blogged at and saw the camera sitting on the desk, with a young woman on the computer. We could not believe it.

The young woman was relieved to see us. She told us that she did not want to hand the camera in and this did not feel like a good option to her. So, she waited, talking to her boyfriend on the computer, hoping that the owners of the camera would come back. She said she thought that she might have to start asking at hostels and hotels about who had lost a camera. The young woman had waited for 2.5 hours. We remembered that she came into the internet cafe when we had left. The woman was from Canada -- Montreal. We were so thankful, as you can imagine. It´s great to have your faith in humanity restored , yet again.
