Got back from cebu on Sunday morning.

We realised at cebu Mactan airport that my camera was missing one hour before our flight.

Annoying but I thought ok I have travel insurance that covers loss so I will get a police report

Turns out I got taken to three different offices at the airport and finally I'm told I need to go to city hall and file it it there for a fee before they will issue any formal loss report.

That's a 3 hour drive in cebu traffic.

Anyway my wife took pics on the way to the airport which just happened to catch the taxi ID on the back window and the hotel also traced the taxi and the driver found the camera bag and took it to the hotel which was then picked up by my wife's mum

Any suggestions on the best and safest way to get it shipped back to the uk? I don't trust Philippines post.

Thank you.
