I’m sorry, has New Orleans run out of sunscreen?
I’ve seen so many people in my family overpack because they just can’t grasp the concept of buying things while they travel.* “Hey, I’ll want to read the paper while I’m there, better cram Sunday’s Tribune into my suitcase.” *We’ve tried to just take carry-ons so we can avoid baggage claim (and baggage loss), but with this attitude, someone’s over the size limit and it has to get a bag checked.
Well, kayaker could either grab a bottle from his bathroom medicine cabinet in kayakerville, taking about ten seconds of not-very-premium time, or he could waste about ten minutes of his vacation time finding a drug store, searching for his very special ultra-SPF sunscreen, and paying more because it’s in the closest corner store instead of a discounter.
Hope this helps.
My nail clippers did have one of those little “files” that the TSA believes could be used to commandeer a plane. The only use I have for it is as a one hitter cleaner, soooo I snapped it off and it made it through!
One tense moment in Pittsburgh. I was putting my belt back on after going through security, and from the little group of TSA agents I hear, “HEY, Kayaker!!” A friend of a friend transferred to Pittsburgh from her previous job in Latrobe. Scared me for a second.
