 Last month we crossed the border from Texas to Mexico. And we weren’t alone – my parents, in their own RV, were right behind us! This latest vlog charts our border crossing – the preparations and procedures, of course, but also our experiences leading up to and crossing the border.

.jpg) It’s one of those perfect fall days – the sun is out, the air is crisp but without that chilled edge, and we are outside, bike riding as a family. As an avid biker, I’ve waited almost ten months to put Phoenix on the back of a bicycle. This bike ride could have taken place just about anywhere and I’d have been happy as a clam. The fact that we are bike riding along the San Antonio River is just icing on the cake.  It wasn’t too long after Phoenix got his cast off that he went officially mobile. Thankfully, we had planned ahead and got the bus baby-proofed, because once he started army-crawling, nothing was safe! Here it is, our latest Vlog, on our baby-proofing measures in our Big Blue Bus, with a bit of added (very cute!) footage on Phoenix learning to go mobile!  Mark my words, friends: I will be back to Louisiana one day. Maybe with a few girlfriends, or on a romantic adults’ only trip with Bruno. It will involve much late-night dancing in New Orleans, an alligator-filled swamp tour, and as much sampling of Cajun/Creole food (what’s the difference, anyway?) as a vegan can taste. Louisiana has been so confounding and confusing that my curiosity is officially peeked!  In all things travel – as in parenthood, I’m finding out – we have to expect the unexpected. Oftentimes, our expectations lead to disappointment; our plans have to change; and the pleasant surprises are found in the least-likely places. That’s what our recent time in the Smokies – and Alabama – reminded me.
