airport security

The airport is a relatively new, stately structure, with high ceilings
of empty space on the inside. Only passengers are allowed out of the
parking lot that sits in front and into the airport itself. A guard sits
on a low stone wall and asks if all five of us are passengers, even
though only three of us carry luggage, and when we say yes he waves us
on with a look that he knows we're lying but decides to let it slide and
remains sitting on his wall.
