we had to do that for some mouse tissue and its so awkward to explain. yes they're samples, no they're not dangerous its just wax blocks, please let me go. Yes I already said they are mutant tissue samples but they're not dangerous... 5 hours later still spinning in circles.

    Decades ago, I was stuck in an Italian airport because they didn't like my camera's batteries (I had spent the day shooting images of the area for a TV program). I didn't speak Italian, they didn't speak any of my languages. We wasted an hour on this.
    Customs can be weird sometimes. It's nothing new.
