Funny post from 2004

Yes I was looking at the posts from 2004 and did find some good hints on what to wear and not wear. However I ran across a post that caught me sideways and made me laugh about what some might bring back from a port.

 

"while we British may not be able to match our American cousins in "travelling kit",we can be in a class of our own in what we buy abroad.

On the same cruise I saw at Madiera a couple carrying a three seater wicker setee up the gang way,and at Dakar another couple struggling with a six feet high solid wooden statue. "

 

The visual that give me is priceless..........am I sounding like MasterCard

Reminds me of when my family visited Switzerland in 1974 and my Dad purchased a 7+ foot long Swiss Halberd and took it back home to the U.S. as carry-on luggage! Have times changed or what?
