I found out the wife is planning a Bahama Cruise next year for my God Daughter's High School Grad.
Is it OK to "get" seeds off the islands? Or will you get in trouble?
Cruise Ships??

I do it all the time
I've been on a couple of cruises. One in 1996 we went to the western Carribean and I scooped all sorts of palm seed. Every time we are in Hawaii I load up my pockets. Have fun, but don't get caught. Joe

Seeds
What happens if you do get caught?
I am like you Joe, whenever I go to a place with palms I pick up seeds and bring them back but I always wondered what would happen if you got caught.

I'm sure if the customs dudes discovered you had your pockets full, they'd just take them away and slap your wrists. Heck, I'd just play dumb and say, " I didn't know that bringing seeds back was not allowed" I just wanted to grow them as house plants. Cheers, Joe
