I am back (at leat i am blocked in London airport...)

about the shampoo it was effectively in my checked lugage...

nevermind, my flight to NY was 3 hours late and nothing to eat and a storm when i arrived in NY (and baggage that were making a little turn by their own i do believe for 2 hours...)

NY JFK to Paris through London.
Flight delayed, so i take one earlier but in London they didn t expect i would catch my correspondance so they book my place to another people.
The problem is at the exit of my plane to the security checkin i have been controlled twice, and i had to put my backbag in the compartment :shock: . Farewell...

The only explanation we found with 2 canadians guys that got the same problem was : english people don t trust american s security control (there is always someone more paranoiac than you, it does work too with idiot).

And 20 meters of corridor from a plane to a correspondance is something so dangerous that you have to be decontaminated
I think that with the carpet and a tootbrush one could be able to make a lethal weapon.

Hello Fanfan,

well, at least you would be in the right state of mind to think up new ways of creating weapons of mass-destruction, after the ordeal you've been through on your way back to good old Europe... :wink:

When people say "I like traveling", they don't mean the actual getting-from-A-to-B procedure; this is mind bogglingly gruesome, trying, tiresome, likely to change people from civilised sentient beings to savage raging vandals, out to pour their bloody-mindedness over everybody else...

But when you arrive somewhere (assuming, even if it is a stretch, that everything you wanted to bring along has arrived there, too :wink: ), you might be able to shake off the beast that built up in you and take a quiet look around...

Kind of like a Zen-experience.... :o :lol: :D
Greetings from overseas
