My brother Ben was coming in the morning , and my carry - on bag would not close . I sat on it . The zip moved a little , then stopped . I wanted it shut before I slept , because the morning would be too short for a second try . He had written one line : " Wear shoes you can walk in . The city is big . " The heavy boots were in the bag , on top of a jacket and a sweater . I took the boots out and put them on my feet . At once the zip had more room . Shoes take space , and the pair I wear does not have to take it . The boots felt heavy and right . I could walk in them all day , and the bag could carry one lighter pair for the evening . The sweater was folded into a square , and it still made a lump . I rolled it tight and laid it beside the jacket . Black trousers sat under a navy shirt . Those colours were easy to mix , so the other shirts could stay at home . I lifted them out , and the lump sank . The zip moved again , almost to the end , and then it caught on a wash bag . The wash bag was full of large bottles . I did not need all of that in a cabin bag . I poured a little into small bottles and left the rest in the bathroom at home . Airlines have rules for liquids in a cabin bag , and I did not want a surprise at the door . I also left the big shampoo . I did not know if the hotel had any , so I did not plan on it . A small bottle was enough to start the trip . A pouch held my passport and the ticket . I put the pouch in my coat pocket , not in the bag . Then I took a photo of the passport and sent it to my own email . A photo is not a passport . It can still show my name and the number if the paper is lost . I checked the charger and the adapter . I was not sure the plugs would match , so the adapter went into the side pocket , where my hand could find it . I sat on the bag once more . This time the zip went all the way . I stood up in the boots and looked at the closed bag by the door . Ben could come . I could walk . The bag was shut , and it stayed shut .
