Oh, the fun that awaits

FYI for my alert readers: I'll be across the pond in Scotland from April 5 to April 11, so the Second Thoughts blog will be temporarily on haitus.

But, my pending trip brings me to today's topic, namely, the Baggage Claim From Hell.

Yes, there are thousands of bags without owners at London's Heathrow Airport Terminal 5. And yes, I will be flying through said terminal. Twice.

They say with travel, getting there is half the fun. But I think I'd like to avoid any unecessary adventure.
