but I think this is what I need to do...what is the process for that, do yo=
u just go up to the customs people with a list of your gear? I too pack all=
my gear in my carry-on. I expect a search by the bag checkers...and custom=
s, that is fine. The only problem I had last time was with customs in regar=
ds to bringing so much gear into the country...they suggested I do an itemi=
zed list which I would like to do, I just wasn't aware of the proper proced=
ure. Thanks.
