I saw this on FB and it made me think of the evergreen topic of “how to pack” that we all enjoy. The comments are entertaining too.

I saw that as well. No idea how it ended up in my feed, but I found it pretty hilarious when I'm trying to figure out how to get by with 10kg instead of the allowed 7kg in my carry on!

Saw that one too. Mr Doubilet sure knows how to travel in style.

He was a legend in Lembeh - probably not just Lembeh! - for how much gear he had. I was told he'd have 3/4 complete setups underwater and whatever he needed was shuttled to him by dive guides. Must have been nice! Beats having to finger out how to setup for a particular dive.....

Oh, the excess, excess baggage fees. I can detect the smell of a melting credit card all the way here.

Walt, I believe there are a couple of credit card companies who, for a minor fee, issue cards made of titanium. Would that help?

That is very true TimG, provided you have the right credit score and willingness/funds to handle the membership fees. Most of my CC are made of metal, aluminum mostly, but not titanium. My income is not high enough to afford one yet.

I am counting underwear and toothbrushes vs floss and this guy is packed for an amphibious landing for ten!

Metal credit cards? I'm impressed, Walt! I'm still on plastic......
