Okay, okay, I\u2019ll try to stop with the movie references. Austin Powers was fun though. Yeah, baby!<\/p>\n

Okay, let\u2019s talk bags. Rick warns us to pack light, and that\u2019s the way to go. No doubt. Dad and I purchased his Convertible Carry-On Backpack<\/a><\/span>, and it worked out well for us. We didn’t have to worry about the wheels of the rolling bags and all the uneven streets. Not to mention the noise from the rolling bags… it\u2019s quite a cacophony when we \u201crolled-out\u201d to the bus. My dad especially liked his backpack as it made him stand up straight. It\u2019s the little things. We both took smaller day bags with us, but my bags were pretty much full \u2014 who knew a tripod was so big?

And I started carrying it about a week after we got there. I felt a little like a pack mule by the end of the trip, but I wanted to bring back goodies for everyone. I’m so glad I listened to my family and brought it so I didn’t have to purchase a bag. I checked my convertible backpack on the flight home and carried on my duffle bag and daypack. So if you don’t mind the extra weight, carrying three bags can be done.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
