travel together...

It was a nice sultry morning and it was during a tea break outside class when I saw a small middle-eastern looking family consisting of husband and wife and 2 young kids. The wife was carrying a lonely planet guidebook in one hand while carrying her toddler daughter. Another kid, a boy, probably 5 years old was carrying a medium sized Spiderman haversack and trawling behind his mom. As for the husband, he was pulling a really huge hard shell-type of suitcase. They entered the popular backpackers’ i.e. Sleepy Sam’s but came out soon after. I guess there were no rooms. Sleepy Sam is always packed with travellers. It’s located at such a nice area, it’s no wonder why it’s so popular. The family then left and walked on.
A family that travels together stays together!
It was such a wonderful sight of family togetherness that, instantly, I felt inspired...when oh when?
They say love hides in corners. Then, I must be walking in circles...
