Not fun any more!

Well, things were going along nicely and then today happened! We came back to our hotel room after a pleasant morning out and about to discover that the safe wouldn't open with our code. So I called reception and two gentlemen came with a master key and opened the safe. They suggested we check the contents while they were there and we discovered that all our money had gone. The thief took two envelopes with our dollars and another one with euros in. Passports still there, credits cards ok, even my jewellery box was untouched. We both feel quite sick.
John has had to go to the police station with the security a manager from the hotel but I don't feel confident that we will ever get it back.
On a brighter note, I spent yesterday arranging for a one month lease on an apartment in a nice area. We move in on Monday and I'm really looking forward to having our own space and being able to shop and cook dinner!
Another good thing is that I have made some contacts (future friends I hope), I had lunch with a couple of ladies on Thursday and I'm meeting one of them to attend a Japanese traditional tea ceremony on Wednesday. That will be a new experience for me!
So life goes on despite ups and downs, isn't that always the way? .....
