Have you seen my babies?
Damn - I lost my cameras!!!!
Here's what happened:
On Friday, at about 6:40pm, I was taking the Chuo - Sobu line to Akihabara.
I had my headphones on. The kind with deep, deep bass.
These babies:
These headphones are so good at blocking out external sounds, that I was effectively 'in the zone'.
When my train arrived at akihabara, I quickly got off and proceeded to my first destination, which was Sofmap, shop 8.
I went into sofmap and spent about 15 minutes looking at used cameras, mp3 players and cheap used LCD monitors. Then I left that shop and walked to the next shop on my list, Sofmap Shop 1.
It was when I got to Sofmap 1 that I realised I didn't have my green rucksack with me.
I thought I must have left it on the train, so I rushed back to the station. I talked to the conductor and went to se the lost property department, on the platofrm. It took a while to explain everything (because I couldnt be sure what time I got off the train at Akihabara) and the conductor called ahead to Chiba (the trains for Akihabara go as far as Chiba!) and asked them to check for my bag.
I also went back to Sofmap 8, to see if my bag was there.
It wasn't.
I asked a shop assistant if anyone had handed in a green rucksack with two digital cameras inside.
He checked but sadly, no one had handed in my bag.
Insdie were my new, black Sony Cybershot DSC-P150 and my old, silver, damaged Sony Cybershot DSC-P100. Also, a 256MB memory stick (with some photos on!).
They cost over 70,000yen.
I brought 2 cameras with me, because I wanted to buy a soft waterproof case for my new camera. I was going to use the old camera to check that the case fitted the new camera (the 2 cameras use the a very similar casing).
I also had my small tripod in my bag. Also, the new camera had the attachment for my new gorila mini tripod.
This meant that the rest of my tripod was effectively useless. Nuts.
I went back to the station and the conductors told me that nothing had been found in Chiba and that the trains I thought I had taken (I could only give a 20minute time period as to when I got off the train) would be coming back through Akihabara soon.
I decided to get on each train and travel one station and look for my bag in the train. Then i would get off and get on the next train and do the same.
After more than 10 trains, I still did not see my bag.
I have since gone to Akihabara police station and filed a report and gave them details of my bag and cameras. Also the same with JR lost property.
I also checked Sofmap again.
No luck so far.
I feel like I want to check all the used recycle stores on the Chuo line, as far as Chiba, but there are so many!!
Who has my cameras?
Bastard.
I miss those cameras.
They were my babies.
The old one was the first digital camera I ever bought.
Many memories there.
Now, I need to find another cybershot.
I am left with memory sticks, 2 batteries and two boxes with all the cables, software, etc.
