This is one of my favorite photos I've taken to date. It was shot Christmas day while traveling from my parents house back to Brooklyn and after staring at it for the zillionth time, I started to think about all the things we do to entertain ourselves in transit.
I tend to over pack, but not clothes and necessities. I over pack my travel bag. Always and even for short subway trips. I know if I just bring a book I'll want to do something else, so I end up with a bag full of knitting, reading, my camera (of course), video games, notebook and pens, etc. It's ridiculous.
Especially since I usually just fall asleep or stare out the window.
So, how do you prepare yourself to travel? Is a good book enough to keep you busy or are you an entertainment pack rat like me?
