I'm a suitcase guy. In hostels, I often feel like people with backpacks are looking down on me. Why is there such a divide? I think some people use their backpack as more of a status symbol representing how much of a hardcore traveler they are.

Comments on this article are spread amongst the series of photos. That makes me sad.

The pyramid reality one is a flash video, you might be missing a plugin. Dare I call a fail on your end? =P

"Generally speaking, you're safe with anything under seven inches in length."

Guess that excludes me! Haha!
Someone had to say it... don't judge me :(

Sorry for the quick conclusions and I appreciate the follow-up. My initial reaction was that this seemed like a post better suited for Engadget. I was curious as to how you'd curve it to fit a travel blog.

Sorry, but this seems out of place on a travel blog... I guess your tie-in is the road-trip aspect, but you didn't even mention that... it just feels like forced advertising.

My family and I used to travel to Frankenmuth (from Canada) quite often as a kid. My dad's German and my mom loves Christmas. It's strange to think the store hasn't changed much over the years.

Two questions every has but is too afraid to ask:

[1] If a child is born on a plane, what nationality are they?
[2] If a child is born on a plane, does the airline grant them flights for life?

Wow! I recognized the hostel in the picture! Barnacles in Galway was amazing!

It's interesting, everyone wants a mac mini to hookup to an HDTV... I'm in the same boat. I wish they'd redesign the AppleTV and make it something more useful. Not everyone buys their videos from iTunes.
