Blogging while traveling is something I have tried to figure out. I used to do a-live posts where I post short snippets on the go. Then I switched to real time blogging and did my best to keep up. This time I tried to improve my real time efficiency by purchasing a tablet with a small keyboard that I could keep with me at all times. That was a disaster. The screen was too small, and the keyboard was terrible. Next trip, I’m going back to real time as much as possible. If I miss a day, so be it. It’s better than missing a whole month.
With that, here are the best only posts from October 2017.
- Aloft LAX: Be Careful Not to Miss Your Flight
En route to Peru, I had sixteen hours in Los Angeles. This provided a perfect opportunity to see some friends and catch up on my drinking. That proved costly as too many margaritas made for a rough day ahead. - United Club LAX: Not A Cure for the Hangover
The United Club LAX is a solid lounge, if only it had better food. - United Business IAH-LIM Flight Review: Delays for Daze
When I flew Emirates Shower Class the first time, I made the mistake of going out in NYC the night before. Though I was comfortable on that flight, I spent most of it trying to recover and not enjoying the on board bar (see Emirates Shower Round 2). Lesson not learned, I had a similar experience flying United from Houston to Lima. - Priority Pass Lima, Peru: Perfect Restover
I’m so happy that there was a quiet lounge to pass the time before going to Cusco. It is much more convenient than having to leave the airport just to come back hours later. - Procrastinator’s Guide to Machu Picchu
The adventure of Machu Picchu is not going to the ancient ruins, it’s getting the tickets to go there. - The Great Train Adventure to Machu Picchu
I love trains. Whether it be the one from Bangkok to Chiang Mai or the lazy route to Machu Picchu, trains can’t be beat. The price is a bit steep, but judging by the occupancy, it has little effect on tourists making the trek. - Machu Picchu: The Souvenir Pricing Guide
Here is what I bought and what I paid. I had to bargain hard to get them which is my favorite pastime.
so much fun to read! I also loved the local crafts in Peru.
Thanks! Much more to come.
