Tourist in Iceland didn't recognize description of herself
According to the Reykjavic Grapevine, the mix-up occurred when the woman broke off from her sight-seeing group last weekend near Eldgja canyon and changed clothes.
Apparently, no one in the tourist group recognized her when she returned and boarded the bus.
When a vague description of the missing person was offered -- an Asian woman in dark clothing who spoke English well -- the woman didn't recognize the criteria as being herself and joined in the search, the Iceland Review reported.
At about 3 a.m. Sunday, the search party finally realized that the person they were looking for was with them all along and the search was called off.
