[/caption]I got tagged at the airport. I was specially selected for Security Screening. I got the SSSS on my ticket. Whoo Hoo!!!
Okay it ended up being no big deal. I actually got to jump the security line. Which was pretty cool and put into a special line. It wasn't any different then regular security except l got a residue swab for ballistics on my bag, and then even though l didn't set off the metal detector l had to either choose a body scan or a pat down. I chose the body scan, it's quicker and really, like going to the doctor, once they have seen one, they've seen them all. :-)
I've had the body scan before when l forgot to take off my watch and set off the metal detector. I don't' understand what the whole fuss is about. I would do that any day, if l could take all the liquids l needed for the 11 days without having to check them into the luggage.
Now if l had a choice l would have preferred to have been specially selected to win the lottery.....
So glad you take it all in stride! It's one reason I stopped flying. Well that, the fact I hate crowds, and because I haven't had anywhere to go for a while :)
ReplyDeleteBut really... I'd much rather drive than fly, even if it means a much longer trip. Sad too because I love the sensation of taking off and landing and the scenery from way above the clouds is beautiful!
