FAMILY="SANSSERIF">I have enjoyed the e-mails even if they are getting
fast a furious. I leave 4/24 and begin my journey from Pamplona on 4/27 or 28.
My question is this...I have purchased a telescopic walking stick..can I carry
this on the plane??? If not , I then assume I will have to check it in. Any
suggestions from those who faced this question leaving from the United States?
P.S. I am looking forward ti those cheese and bread breakfasts. Phil
