Had lots of fun today with a small photoshoot with Ella at the Santa Barbara train station. We recently got back from a trip to San Diego via Amtrak and had forgotten how wonderful and relaxing a train trip can be. Beautiful ocean views, large seats with tables, dining car, snacks, who could ask for more.

Have you ever been frustrated with kids luggage during a trip? Has your kids luggage ever broken down way before it should have? We were surprised how few choices of high quality suitcases are available for kids. So our family set out on an entrepreneurial journey to develop the ultimate suitcase for kids. Our first suitcase for girls is named after our daughter, Ella. She has played an instrumental role in the creation of this suitcase with many of her suggestions implemented. In fact, she recently tested the suitcase at Disneyland and is currently on a three week trip in Colorado. The prototype is getting tons of compliments and passing with flying colors.

We’ve created this blog to share our product development efforts, business start-up adventures and provide articles and resources for all things family travel related. We hope you join us and feel welcome to contribute.
