How to Travel Lightly, from the Experts

I remember vividly the first time that I saw a cardboard box secured with duct tape drop down onto a luggage carousel at the airport. My jaw dropped right along with that box. It soon became apparent that the former container for multiple jugs of Clorox Bleach was just the first in a set of matched luggage for one of my fellow travelers.

He cheerfully gathered his boxes, plunked them onto an airport luggage cart, and off he went.

If you're a bit more discerning, you may want to attend a Travel Seminar and Packing Workshop this Saturday at Edward's Luggage at Stanford Shopping Center.

Details can be found on the store's listing here on Palo Alto Patch. Take a look at the eight photos that they've uploaded and, if you've shopped at the store, take a moment to rate it.
