In searching for an
easy way to keep everyone abreast of our
work travels along with all the fun and
trouble we will get into along the way I decided to catch up with the rest of
the world and start a blog. My goal was
to stay in touch without having to copy
and paste the same email over and over again , or be completely obnoxious with
posts on Facebook. So a blog seemed the
natural solution . Please feel free to follow it , but don’t critique my grammar or look for any life
changing or awe inspiring travel reviews….. this is just a simple journal of
what we consider “Good Travel”.
This blog was originally titled “The Well Traveled Suitcase”
in honor of a gorgeous travel bag I received as a going away gift from my friends;
Lisa, Mallory, and Megan . However, after
staying in 19 cities over 30 some days our
motto of “Good Travel” was repeated over and over again which became the
natural title for this blog.
What is Good Travel?
It is different for everyone. To
some people Good Travel is mapping out tours of museums and castles or hiking up the side of a
mountain. Our definition is a bit
different and it usually changes from day to day. Yes, sometimes Good Travel is heading to
Dubai on a business class flight with champagne in hand before takeoff
(who wouldn't consider that Good Travel?) . Quite often it is much
simpler like the time we pulled into a Mississippi
gas station on day 18 of our road
trip looking for a simple biscuit for
breakfast and finding the treasure trove of all breakfasts- homemade hot
boudain sausages and pork tamales! Good Travel can be driving 10 straight hours
with movies to keep the kids distracted or stopping every couple of hours when
the mood suits you to see the tacky souvenir shops. Good travel can be an amazing steak dinner at
Dickie Brennan’s in New Orleans , or cooking hamburgers around a fire on
Carters Lake.
Cheers and here is to your Good Travel!
