Tip: I carry rolls of doggy poop bags for such things. What cannot go in the bowl, and we ladies have a few things that are taboo, gets bundled into a poop bag for the waste can. Perfect.
@CharleneCTX Ай бұрын
You can also get bags for disposing of ladies things that are thicker, opaque, and more odor-proof. We have a septic system and have to be careful what is flushed.

Doug, you're keeping the cruising public informed so so you read stories about keeping the plumbing working. No one ever wants a backed up toilet, especially on a cruise. They should charge passengers for flushing non approved objects.
@PatrickWagz Ай бұрын
Costa cruise lines has signs in the bathroom warning guests that they will be charged for backing up their toilets, as well as charged for any other toilets that are affected.

PSA: To all those who enjoy going to the range like me, buy yourself a SEPARATE LUGGAGE set for vacation use. Stop using the bags for both purposes. This will save you potential jail time, big fines, and possible prison if the judge in that country is not lenient. Lets not forget loss of job and family while its happening. Just dont combine uses. You can get a set of luggage for under $200 and a new backpack for under $50. So much less than having to shell out $9,000 and going to jail, begging for your freedom.

Tip for users of wipes: Bring small ziplock bags so you can dispose of them (and anything else contaminated by bodily fluids) sealed in the bathroom's trash. Your attendant will appreciate not having to deal with your sh*t. :)

It's strange, the ammo guy was never confronted by TSA, or Cruise security as he went on and off the ship many times. Something is not right about security when he passes those checkpoints and only gets caught. WHEN? they don't check your bags in Grand Turk. When did they find the ammo?

Mornin' Doug! I'm happy for time served and a fine. Good outcome! It was an honest, but perhaps a bit careless, mistake. I've always kept my international travel bags intentionally separate and away from my range bags and even my domestic travel bags. I'm sure the lesson was learned, but a family was not destroyed. Wise judgement, there. Loved "Exception is flushing money away in the casino.". Great stuff! Have a great week!

I am glad he got time served and a fine. However, I still don’t understand how you accidentally have stray bullets or ammunition in your bag- I always fully empty and double check my bags before packing. I am not a gun person at all, so I guess I don’t really know - maybe it is more common to have ammunition in your bag than I thought?
@tduck828 Ай бұрын
I had giant crafting scissors in my purse and a friend dropped me at airport. I meant to leave the scissors so she could sharpen them for me. I left them in my purse and totally forgot. Crazy thing is I got through security. They were about 6 inch blades. I can't believe I got through security with them. Oops.
@markt.3454 Ай бұрын
One possibility: The rounds one might carry for personal defense are whole lot more expensive than those you shoot at the range. I confine this to my range bags, but I always empty the defense rounds out of magazines at the range and load up practice rounds. If your bag is doing "double duty" and you're not radically diligent in looking in all the tucks and corners, I can see where it would be possible to miss a couple when you're finishing up. Good reason to keep your travel bags and range completely apart.
@Star-Boarder Ай бұрын
I go to the range all the time. Bullets can get lose and stuck in a tiny crevice. However the best solution is to not use your bags for shooting for vacation bags. $9,000 and jail time is way more than purchasa completely separate set of luggage.

I think this fine is INSANE! Ii is obviously a mistake! He wasn't smuggling in hundreds or rounds to sell. What is he going to do criminally with 2 rounds? If you shoot competition, you will understand that rounds and casings get everywhere. His only mistake was not using separate luggage for travel.

I knew that they were going to let him (as well as all Americans who brought ammo) out with a fine. That's how Caribbean governments operate. They put money above their laws. They are heavily dependent on American tourism dollars and will not do anything to mess that up. My birth country of Jamaica would have done the same darn thing. SMH.
