I hated the arrival customs place you showed in the last one with all the trolleys. I got grilled by the customs guy. I was there for a wedding and he kept asking where it was (Tofino but i couldn’t remember that) and who was getting married and what type of car i had rented. IM NOT A CRIMINAL…HONEST!

i’m not sure.
do you have an address of the driver of the car.

@mcpaige — i was actually contemplating wearing the glove over my nose like a beak. just to amuse myself. it was 3 hours. does that make me strange?
