I know now to arrive hours ahead of time and prepared to strip. In Israel, the screener girl had no idea what metal knees meant so I had to go with her to a separate room and remove all of my clothes so she could check out my knees. That would have been fine but while I was gone, somebody took my money belt off of the conveyor belt and took $1000 out of it. I asked later if they had a video of the area so we could see who took my money but, of course, they didn't. Moral: Don't leave your valuables behind when you have to go and be strip-searched!! I was too nervous to even think about it. I should have taken photos myself! Tina Tina Manley, ASMP, NPPA http://www.tinamanley.com
