What's Your Favorite Souvenir?

I love Michael Hughes' imaginative"Souvenirs" set on Flickr. What's your favorite souvenir from your travels?  Mine is actually a chestnut. I picked it up off the ground and tucked it into my jacket pocket. I forgot, and carried it home all the way from a tiny town in the Austrian Alps. Sometimes, it's not the souvenirs you buy, but the souvenirs you find.
