Every trip must have at least one luggage incident and this would be no exception. Some mechanical monster ate my suitcase leaving it with a large torn open pocket and my stuff hanging out. Common procedure in this situation is to yell at a customer service enployee until security comes but I was too tired to give it my full effort so I gave in after only 5 minutes. Bought a used suitcase at the airport for more then a whole set costs anywhere else. Did some fancy packing in the middle of the airport and sent my abused suitcase to a luggage hospital someplace in Texas. Next stop some sleep then the cruise boat.
