shirts! a "ac#et! two pairs of soc#s! a pair of shorts! and two pairs of "eans. e was carrying a s$all bac# pac#!
which was very full! he didn%t have any other luggage. Brian needed to $eet a $an na$ed Tony before he
chec#ed in for his flight. e found Tony near the &ir France counter. Tony gave hi$ a round trip tic#et and a
s$all pac#age.

luggage! right?' ',nly this bac# pac#!' Brian answered. '+ou said * could bring one carry-on bag.' 'That%s right.
