Think back to the last time you went on vacation. I realize that might be a while ago. Did you bring home a souvenir? A French man certainly did, and he was fined $1200 for it at the airport! You say, "what did he take?"
IT. WAS. SAND.
He took 4.4 pounds of white sand from a beach in Sardinia and put it into a plastic bottle. Seems innocent, right? WRONG! That’s against the law. They are so proud of their beaches in Sardinia, they could have actually arrested the guy...for sand!!!
I want to know if they check all over your body when leaving the beach. You know how sand gets stuck in every crevice! Is that also illegal? And whose job is it to remove?
