after he recovered a camera, which was a Mother's Day gift.

Mary Ann Zwiebel and her husband told The Royal Gazette "there are still good people'' after cab driver Cubitt Smith got their camera back from his friend, who mistook it for a lunch box.

The Zwiebels cruised to Bermuda on the Zenith and were on a day trip to Crystal Caves and Shelly Bay Beach before catching a ride back to Hamilton in Mr. Smith's cab.

Mrs. Zwiebel said during the ride to Hamilton where her ship was docked, Mr.

Smith talked about travel, his children and life.

After unloading their belongings in Hamilton, Mrs. Zwiebel noticed the camera was missing and began searching.

She found another cab driver who called dispatchers but no one knew of Mr.

Smith or his taxi van.

After dinner, she waited by the cab-stand for nearly an hour and Mr. Smith arrived.

Mr. Smith said that he only had two fares when he found the cab and a friend had mistaken it for his lunch box.

Mrs. Zwiebel said: "Thank you Mr. Smith and St. Anthony for returning my Mother's Day camera and memories.'' One of a kind: The Zwiebels pose with cab driver Cubitt Smith (c) who returned their wayward camera.
