There are some things that I want to address, as reminders. I am mainly writing this for myself, so that the next time I go out of town I will remember these things. But since this is public I hope that something that I have written is able to help you next time you travel.
Let's get started....
1. Bring extra cash.
(I did not know that you had to pay for one of your bags to be loaded on the bus. It is 15 dollars for each extra bag. Thank God that the lady wasn't hateful and mean or else I would still be stuck at the bus station with my bag lol)
2. Use a rolling travelling suitcase with a handle.
See, I thought that I would have someone to help me carry my stuff wherever I went. I also thought that the bag was not as heavy as it was. It was a field day trying to get that big suitcase all over town. The only reason why it was extra heavy is because it had my laptop in it.
The next time I travel I'm going to make it very easy on myself and on my back and just roll everything around behind me.
3. Heels are for sitting, Flats are walking
If you walk around in heels in the city your poor little toesies are going to hurt, so make sure to bring flats.
4. Don't be afraid to ask for directions
You will save a lot more time if you just walk up to someone and ask them if they know where such and such place is versus you trying to look for it yourself.
5. I didn't know it was going to get that HOT in DC, but when I was there it was hot and so I will never walk anywhere without bringing a bottle of water. OH! MY GOSH! lol
6. Also don't buy anything or do anything that you can also do back home. I spent so much money on drinks when I went out. That I forgot that I was just visiting. I did try some different kind of fruity drinks, but I can always try that being in NC for way cheaper lol
I was so happy to finally get a chance to leave NC. I needed to regroup. I needed a break and God certainly looked out for me.
