HELP: Forgot my guide at Café Bar Bendaña in Santiago

Time of past OR future Camino
Finished: See post signature.
Doing: C. Levante
If someone is in Santiago and pass Café Bar Bendaña at Rúa Nova 54 could you please go in and ask if they still have my guide. Must have left it there August 11 when I hurried to the airport buss. If they still have it i would be very very happy if it could be posted to me. I can of course pay the cost or at least give me a photo of the email address written on one of the last pages in the book. I promised a pilgrim to send some photos when her camera broke down.

I know.
I don't have a Facebook account. I'll try to call them but I know they speak very little English and I doubt they will send the book to me. Maybe I can get them to send a picture at least.

Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
I really hope you get the book - do you know anyone that speaks Spanish that might be able to call them?

I could try my school Spanish mixed with some English. Just hoped that someone might be in the area. I can manage without the book but I have some notes in it that I was about to add to my blog today and that email address.

I sent them a message in Spanish through Facebook. If they reply to me I'll let you know, ok?

That's what I like about the Camino.

Thank you so much. I sat in a chair next to their computer using the power outlet. Must have left it in the chair after writing my last blogpost. Hurrying to the airport bus. I was about to check something in the book on the bus but couldn't find it in the daypack. Though I had put it in my backpack. When I came home it wasn't there either
 
No reply online yet... I'll keep you posted. It's really nice that Ivar offered to go there in person!

Stopped by this morning.. and they said that they did not know of any guide. Someone else might have taken it I guess ...

Thanks for looking anyway.
Guess I will have to order a new one as I need it as support to fill in the blanks in my blog. I just wish I had that email address
