A Figment

Figment, what is a figment? A figment is something created by the imagination. A figment simply does not exist. 

It came to my attention that for years I planned trips that were merely figments. They were just dreams. I planned itineraries. Sometimes I booked rooms. Once I got as far as paying off part of a cruise. I went to the Caribbean, Spain, England and France in my imagination. 

How did I allow these trips not to happen? I let life get in the way. I allowed other things to take priority over me. Once I had a serious financial set back. However, the biggest mistake I made was not making the big commitment first. The point of no return. The plane ticket. Once you have a plane ticket it's completely possible to travel, even if you have to budget, or you know, starve for three days. 

So I present to you the imagination backpack.

In the next six months, I've got three plane tickets purchased. The first takes off tomorrow morning. That backpack is my only piece of luggage for the next four days.

In the coming six months, we'll go to Disneyland, Mexico City, and Paris. We'll talk about traveling light, micro packing. I'm looking for the best, economical travel products. After that, the sky is the limit, my imagination has so many plans stored away.

Right now, I'm getting ready to go to Disneyland for the California Adventure Food and Wine Festival. My backpack is packed, my cats have baby sitters, and I have reservations for wine seminars, food seminars and some really great meals. 

Come travel with me!
