Daddy’s instructions were to pack for our trip. I gave him a list of restrictions for carry-on baggage in order to be TSA approved. Containers of liquids could only hold 3 ounces, no sharp items allowed, no ammunition, etc. We were up early, loaded our luggage in the car and headed to the airport. The line through security was short and we went through with no problem.
Our visit with family and friends passed all too quickly. Soon, it was time to take the flight back home. Once again, we had to go through security. Daddy was in different line than me. I got through, grabbed my carry-on bag and waited.
Where was that little man? I turned around and scanned every line. There he was! The TSA agents had pulled him aside. I walked over to get a closer view. The agents pulled items out of his bag. What was that? A huge bottle of hair gel! That was definitely TSA Unapproved! They confiscated his big bottle of gel and sent him on his way. I couldn’t figure out how he got through security the first time.
Now why does one little man with a little bit of hair need a great big bottle of hair gel?
I don’t know either.
The next time we took a flight, I checked his bag before we left home. He made it through security without any alarms going off – TSA Approved.
