What was that?

Finally back at my Gainesville desk after two weeks of turtling in Africa - will write more about it later, but in the meantime, here's something that caught my attention at Tangier airport...
After foolishly making the decision to fly from Casablanca to Tangier (we were trying to save time, but it took just as long as, if not longer than a cheaper trip by train!), we were waiting at midnight at the one and only baggage carousel at Tangier airport when this green package went by on the carousel - was it really what I thought it was?? Yes, it was indeed a packet of Pampers (brand of diapers) cleverly fitted with a check in tag! 
Not one package, but three went round!! My comment (which according to my French colleague is the most commonly used phrase by girls from the USA) was "how cute!" I took these photos while the solemn locals probably muttered "more silly tourists." I was really curious to see who would claim them, but they were still circling around when our luggage came through...
