| How the Pana-Gals View Their Travelling Luggage |
 |
| My Upcoming Tuesday Night |
One of the true adventures
of my wife’s annual trips to her homeland of Panama is to watch the luggage
packing process. This year I have the
added entertainment, of no small measure, of watching 5 Panamanian women pack
suitcases for the trip home. Let there
be no doubt here, this is entertaining to watch. They scheduled the final two days of their
trip to do nothing but packing their luggage.
This is no small feat we’re talking about here.
These ladies have been
shopping almost non-stop since their arrival a few weeks ago and now they have
to figure out how to get all their purchases as well as their clothes into the
suitcases they brought with them. I’ve
often wondered as I’ve seen the respective hordes grow exponentially after each
shopping foray how they would get it all home.
I’m intensely interested to see it all happen. To travel back with only the suitcases they
brought will require a re-ordering of the basic laws of physics.
I finally had a lazy day
yesterday parked in front of the mesmerizing new TV watching movies. My wife told me that yesterday the packing
would commence. The gorgeous Pana-Gals decided
they needed to return a couple items and exchange others. They left for their short trip around
noontime.
Seven hours later they
returned flushed with even more packages as the thrill of the shopping hunt
would not permit them to leave the playing field without scoring some more purchases. The entertainment factor for the next couple
of days was therefore further enhanced.
They leave on Wednesday
morning so Tuesday night could see some severe luggage torture. My role in all of this (my decision) is to
keep a low profile and not be drawn into the upcoming maelstrom of packing;
wish me luck.
