The Captain was made to check his sword when boarding his delayed, intercontinental flight. He reported sadly, "Ye'd be thinkin' they're a needin' me help te protect the folk, but Piratin's gotten a bad name I guess."
Foreign travel has become more complicated too, he discovered. Passengers were only allowed to check 1 bag weighing no more than 50 pounds, a change from even months ago. Some cheap flights within the European continent only allow approximately 20 pounds per bag and only one (not 2 as the overseas flight allowed) carry-on. Given that he'll continue to be required to check his sword, the Captain began plotting the art of packing quite lightly --- he decided to wear variations of his one cape and cap the entire semester.
And because the wee fellow stands only 10 cm, carrying his own passport (standard 12.5 cm) will be difficult enough on this long semester's journey.
"No worries, mate," the Captain reported to passers by, "I'm gettin me work-out this way!"
Off to Britain he went.
