35. Fiji (Suva Airport)
The ultimate test of self-esteem, surely, is being weighed along with your luggage at the airline check-in for the tiny island hopper. The dubious eyes of the clerk size you up and tally your aggregate heft, eyebrows raised.
A momentary dread: will it be you or the goat off-loaded today?

Strangely enough when asked by the smiling steward checking my luggage in for any flight if I have any more baggage I often take a minute…………..then reply “Perhaps not today; some other time we can get together over coffee maybe”
Boom-TISH! Great reply. It would be nice if we could offload that sort of baggage. I wouldn’t put a tag on it so it couldn’t find me again!
