Story of a Small Traveling Suitcase

It has been a long time since I visited my blog. Hello and Welcome! Even though, I traveled off and on over the years, I did not mention the most recent trip from Indianapolis to Sydney to New Delhi from Oct to Nov 2023. It was quite memorable. The reason why I was compelled to post today is: a jolt from the past about a traveling suitcase! My friend and I talked today when she reminded me of a small red suitcase she took from Indianapolis to Kathmandu. She offered this information: "Remember, the little red suitcase you gave me in Indianapolis in Sept 2004? Believe it or not, this tiny bag has accompanied me on many of my travels! It's the most comfortable and easy to lug carryon piece of luggage! And she proceeded to tell me that even her young daughter used it frequently. She tells me, it has no scratches on it; the zipper works fine; nothing is torn even though it's a fabric case." I am in awe! Here is a shot of it:

Believe it or not! A 20-year-old bag!!
