Just a quick report on international travel with a THR vs. USA travel.
As usual, the metal detector (as noted before, I have TSA PreCheck) detected the hips. Also as usual, I opted for the extra screening/'vigorous' patdown in San Francisco. And vigorous it was... I feel I'm owed dinner from all the contact. To their credit, though, they were courteous and professional. They also did not make me wait very long.
As I was departing Seoul at Incheon airport, where they only have metal detectors, I also set off the alarms. The gentleman on the other side motioned me over, told me he needed to give me an extra patdown. It lasted 30 seconds, covered most territory, and was also professional and courteous without being vigorous or as invasive.
It was a great trip - hips held up. Leg muscles also did good - getting stronger every day. Walking around the city I averaged about 5 miles a day while there, even on those days I had to work. Took advantage of all of the free time that I had to see what I could. Great city!
