I lost my ID while on a day trip to the Big Island and didn't realize it until we were catching the last flight back to Oahu where I'd be leaving for mainland in a few days. My friends had already gone through security. I emptied my very full if souvenirs day bag and shit was EVERYWHERE all over the floor. I was bawling afraid I wouldn't be able to get home bc there was no way to get a police report in time. But I found my state ID fishing liscense and a state university student ID with my picture so they took pity on me and let me through.

Can't decide. Let's see... One of these four:
* Being caught up in a rebel army attack (LRA) in northern Uganda?
* Being attacked by 50-60 secret Kono society members so that we were trapped, crowded in a back room for 40 minutes with them screaming and chanting outside the door in an area where people had been burnt to death inside a building and enslaved (blood diamond country) or hacked to death?
* After spending a weekend on edge of Amazon in Ecuador, no roads, doing fine - but then getting food poisoning in the 4 star hotel in Quito and a excruciating long night of worst sickness and uncontrollable cramps with drip for re-hydration next morning?
* Getting completely lost in Baku in a light jacket in middle of the night with it snowing and unable to remember the name of my hotel? Hours in the cold?

@whowasthatmaskedman It's related to my work in overseas aid. Risky areas. And a stupid decision in Baku.

@Thevy29 I did the Brisbane to Cairns (Port Douglas actually) with my wife some years ago. But we 4 starred it and took 5 weeks to do it. I would do it again in a heartbeat. But all the island resorts are closed and gone now thanks to a couple of bad hurricane seasons and Covid. Maybe next year.. Maybe....😷

Snowed into the airport for 2 days and never made it to our cruise. We slept in the club, luckily we were members, but they opened the club at 5:30 and moved us around. No one could get to the airport, why did they need to have us awake?

Getting into cuba. I almost got arrested. I went to the worst airport for an American to travel to. The government taxis were overcharging and pushy. I had to convince "illegally" for a cheaper price from an unmark taxi. All the cameras at the airport were on the taxis driver and I as we left. This was right after immigration gave me a very hard time. Threatening me to lock me up 🤦🏾 I'm never going to Santiago Cuba again
