New L.L. Bean Rolling Duffel that was under $100.00. The customer reviews are also excellent and the company will replace it if it is damaged or breaks, no questions asked!
For an additional cost they will embroider your name or initials!
It is top heavy so it doesn't stand on its own very well, but it has wheels and a retractable handle.
As a purse alternative, I purchased this Nike gym sack! It is very roomy and only costs $15!
Another steal at $15! I purchased this expandable toiletry bag at Walmart. It has individual slots for my shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and bath sponge in the from zipper! It is also adorable!
Inside has pockets for all of my other travel size goodies! It is super spacious!
Lastly, I purchased new walking shoes from the Sketchers outlet. They are Sketchers Toners. These are the most comfortable shoes I have ever walked in. I walked a couple of miles in them just to test them out and my feet did not bother me at all! They aren't even broken in yet either!
Well, these are some of my new goodies for the trip! Still trying to debate on purchasing a disposable international phone at some point or if I will just skype/email the amazing husband while I am away. Also, Dr. Vandiver informed us that we will be in Russia during white nights or the phenomenon also known as the midnight sun! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midnight_sun It sounds very interesting and is just another great thing we will be privileged to experience on our trip!
Hrm...do you like purple Elisha? :) Everything looks awesome, and you're gonna have the best time! <3
ReplyDeleteI opted for the Green L.L. Bean duffle. You were right. It is built really well and their warranty can't be beat.
ReplyDeleteI will be seeing you soon for the trip!
