After an eventful journey to the Airport, with a few mishaps, I got to the check-in desk on time and discovered that I could have brought 10 kgs more. My backpack has been emptied and checked three times, twice at Heathrow and now again at Delhi going through security to Kathmandu. I was also taken to a cubicle and searched. Do I look like a terrorist? Perhaps I am overdoing the big beaming smile. Customs officers seem to think it suspicious.
I am writing this whilst waiting for my flight from Delhi to Kathmandu. It is very hot and I have taken off layers of clothes and squashed them in my backpack. Let’s hope I don’t have to empty it again.
Presumably your friendly customs officers must think that anyone smiling whilst being prodded, pocked and herded like cattle around the skies of the world must be either mad, bad or have something to hide.
ReplyDeleteGlad you have made it to India at least. Jx
Thanks for post Jeremy - the internet is a wonderful thing. Please tell Clang that the ear plugs are the best I've ever had. Hotel is wonderfully placed in the centre of the tourist area but consequently very noisy. Put in earplugs however, and slept like a log x
