Missing pieces found...

Xuan has a set of Lego Duplo which has three people figures, characters from safari. Xuan named these three after himself, my bro and his gf. Two months ago, we were busy packing and unpacking, shifting house from the old place to here and we couldn't find the figure, xuan xuan. Also went missing were an ostrich and a cheetah. Xuan has been pestering us to help him locate them. Hubby and I have tried our best and they were just nowhere to be found. Today, we have received a piece of good news from sis' bf. He was helping my sis to clear the room and he found a plastic bag. Upon opening the bag, he saw those items. I felt a big relief, seriously!! When Xuan asked me about those missing pieces, I felt upset that we have lost them. We went to look high and low for the loose units at some Lego outlets and were disappointed that we couldn't find it. I even had an idea of writing to Lego to try my luck. Now that we have found the xuan xuan, cheetah and ostrich, the safari is back to its old self and they are all happy again.
