Before I completely part with this travel journal for a while, I wanted to list some of the more detailed logistics that made this trip possible.
All of the writing for this trip was done on my iPhone, and a large majority of the restaurants we patroned were also the products of the Yelp app. In fact, prior to leaving on the trip, I had set up neither the custom travel journal template nor used the WordPress App to write anything before.
Therefore, I completed coding the custom travel timeline header all from the FTPontheGo App, which made me appreciate both my MacBook’s full keyboard as well as Coda’s syntax recognition engine.
All of the hotels we stayed in were both comfortable and reasonable in price. Although the restaurants were all different, all of them were good.
For reference, all of the more vital logistics are listed below:
