We’re 43 days away from our trip to the US/Caribbean and with all the hoopla going on with what you can and cannot bring with you, either on board or in your luggage, I’m going to save some inspector a lot of time by documenting everything I am putting in my luggage. One day/one shirt/one short at a time. Sit back and pack with me! Remember to click to embiggen!

You have to start with a good case. By the looks of this one, you’d say I’ve had it years and years. Actually it’s only been on three major trips. The brunt of all those scrapes you see is from my first trip with it – damaged greatly by some overzealous handler inbetween Florida and Ontario. Imagine my dismay when it rolled down the ramp at Miami Airport after it’s inaugural flight, all bunged up and such – words from all of our Moms echoing in my head: “We can never have nice things!!” Now, I relate each scrape as a travel battle scar. Much like the oatmealy lumps on my ass.
