Lost and Found

Luke 19:1-10
A woman was reported missing after she didn't return to the bus after a sightseeing tour at a volcanic canyon in Iceland. The driver waited an hour before notifying the police. Soon after the missing person's report, search and rescue teams and even a helicopter arrived to search for the missing woman. About 50 people also participated in the search on vehicles and by foot.
But the search was called off within about 12 hours when it authorities discovered that the missing woman wasn't really missing. She was actually on the bus and had even been a part of the search party. After the canyon tour and before getting on the bus, she changed her clothes and ''freshened up.''

She recognized the description of herself and ''had no idea that she was missing.'''' Lost Woman Looks for Herself in Iceland's Highlands,'' Iceland Review (8-27-13)
