Train ride from Aguas Calientes to Ollataytambo, Peru

Curse those shallow pockets

Only cheap pants or jackets have shallow pockets.  I suppose you get what you paid for. I do not mind wearing cheap apparel as long as they look good on me.  But what I I despise about shallow pockets is the tendency for items to fall out of it.  Heaven forbids if it is an important item like a wallet, keys or mobiles.  But even for ordinary items to just magically disappear from your pockets because it fell out is still quite vexing.

Take for example plastic dog bags for the poop when walking the pooches.  I am a very conscientious dog owner.  I walk my dogs and I always pick up the poop of my dogs.  It has happened more than a handful of times where I stuff a plastic bag on my coat or track pants shallow pocket only to discover that it fell out from my mere walking / movement.  Then I am stuck in the middle of my walk without the ability to pick up my dog's poop.  Too far away to walk back and get a new bag and not yet close enough to home to backtrack and retrieve the poop.  How vexing indeed!
