Not to get too wildly off topic, but I completed a RTW in late Dec., and chronicled the entire thing photographically. Needless to say, if anyone knew how much camera equipment was rolling onto every flight with me, I reckon they would be quite shocked. This is the bag that accompanied me, and it was packed to the gills.
