On to passport #2

It’s amazing for to say it, but I have now retired my first passport and moved on to the second. Near as I can tell, this passport represents at least 800,000 miles of international travel out of my total accumulated miles of 1.5 million. (As least as far as American Airlines tells me. I suspect that the number is higher since I used to split my time between American and United when I lived in Chicago.) My carbon footprint is huge.

Not all the trips are stamped sequentially, it seems to me that border agents play a game of stamping where they fancy. Also, not all countries stamp your passport. Switzerland, for example, just looks to see if you have a passport. They don’t even go as far as to *scan* it. Bizarre neutrality.

On to number two !
