Packed and Ready To Go

After many flights and much thought, I bought the perfect set of luggage. The carry-on has four wheels instead of two. This makes the carry-on easy to twist when I need to squeeze myself and my luggage into small bathroom stalls. Also, because it has four wheels, when I get on the plane I just turn it sideways and push it to my seat. Two wheelers need to be either carried or dragged behind you as make your way down the narrow isle of the plane to your seat. When it's dragged, it bounces from seat to seat much like a ball in a pinball machine.

My "purse" is ideal too. It has holders for my water bottle and coffee mug. There's a padded section for my PC and iPad. The main compartment stores my neck roll, headphones, eye cover, socks, and hoodie. I carry a hairbrush, gum, mints, Kleenex, eye liner, and lipstick. Snacks, sanitizers, and a washcloth are at the ready too. The front is where I keep my phone wallet, boarding pass, and rental car contract. I never wear black and I dress in layers. Yes, I enjoy traveling much more than before!
