Notes from Brisbane - Amazing thing

"oh no Salma, I think I left my backpack on the Citycat", I told Salma when we were chatting on the bus to West End after visiting the University of Queensland by waterway.
Salma look a bit disappointed (about me, I was talking too much).Then she calmly called the city council, telling them about her friend's situation and asking them for help with hope the backpack was still there on the same Citycat that had just left UQ. She said they can find it unless somebody else pick it up.
I was half worried as I left my new Nexus tablet in the bag and half okay as something inside of me saying "This is Brisbane. Salma looks so calm. It will be okay". We then hung out in West End, having lunch at a Italian restaurant along the main road of West End. I could never forget that big super-delicious dish of mussels with tomato sauce. Just as I finished my lunch, somebody called Salma talking about about a black backpack as I had described before. I then talked to that woman, she finally made sure that the bag was exact as I said: with a yellow-cover tablet (deep inside). She told me to come to her office before 4:30 p.m

OMG. I feel so excited that didn't f*cking care about that rain coming at the moment. Salma took me to a small 'lost items' office in the city, next to the river. The woman was there, warmly welcoming me. She seemed excited to see me, as if she was the one who lost the bag. Quickly finishing a few procedures, she happily gave me back the backpack.

I then told Salma how amazing thing happened: I lost my backpack and got it back in just 2 hours. Yes, I was lucky but ain't Brisbane great?
I love Brisbane!
