We headed to Federation Square next. The main reason we went there was because there was free wi-fi and I wanted to update my instagram but obviously I couldn't do that without a phone. For the rest of the afternoon, K was taking pics of me and I plastered on a smile but I was feeling slightly sad about losing my phone. I was thinking that maybe I'll just get an iPhone 5C as a replacement but K said just wait and try to ask the reception just in case someone has turned it in. He suspected that maybe I dropped it in the cab on the way from the airport.
When we got to the hotel reception, after getting our room keys I asked whether anyone has turned in a phone by any chance?
Receptionist : "What kind of phone?"
Me: "an iPhone 5"
Receptionist : "It's your lucky day!!"
and passes over my phone!!
When asked if I left it at the counter, she said that a businessman handed it in!
So I presume that the cab driver, asked his next passenger if he could drop it off on his way and this passenger was kind enough to stop by the hotel!!!
I was stunned, gobsmacked and most of all grateful for the kindness of the taxi driver and the kind businessman. The taxi driver was a fellow muslim as I noticed his 'sejadah' in his boot. While the business man, god knows who he was.
This is a pic taken from the cab and I can see the cab driver's ID number. so I am going to write an email to the cab company in the hope that my "Thank You" get passed on to him.
