DS17 recently returned from a school-sponsored March Break trip to Greece. (You know the ship that sank off Santorini, the Sea Diamond? He was on that same cruise two weeks previous. ) Upon his return home, and while still in a lack-of-sleep-induced catatonic state, he did a load of laundry. Unfortunately, he failed to empty his pockets, and when I retreived the laundry from the washer, there was his soaking wet passport in the bottom of the tub.
We proceeded to dry it out on a register (just like you would your mitts) and although the pages and cover are a little crinkly, all the text and images in the passport are perfectly legible. For any experts out there, if he was to try using the passport would the fact that it looks like it's been through the washer cause him any grief? I'd rather not replace it if we don't have to because we just renewed them in November. If replacing it is necessary, obviously we'll do it.
I've tried calling the passport office, but I can never break through the busy signal. Anyone have any thoughts?
