Moxie가 처음 가본 Buc-ee’s – Leeds, AL
지난 5월말에 아틀란타에서 멤피스로 운전하고서 잠시 다녀올 일이 있었습니다.
왕복으로 다녀오는 길에 있던 미국에서 최근 크게 성장하고 있는 대형 고속도로 주유소 겸 휴계소를 오늘 소개합니다.
아틀란타와 멤피스간의 이동은 약 6시간정도 걸렸는데요. 아틀란타 출발 약 3시간이 채 되기전에 Leeds라는 알라바마의 동네를 지나갑니다.
Buc-ee's는 오래전부터 한번 가보려고 마음은 먹고 있었고요. 작년 이맘때쯤 저희가 St. Augustine에...

Asiana Airlines LAX-ICN A380-800 Business Class 2026 Review
올 4월에 다녀왔던 ATL-LAX-ICN-SGN-NRT-ORD-ATL 여행 일정중에 두번째구간 비행 탑승 리뷰에 왔습니다.
여러번 탑승해봤던 아시아나 항공 A380-800 비지니스석이긴 한데, 포인트발권으로 좋은 자리가 보여서 한국으로 가는 비행편으로 선택을 했습니다.
오는 2026년 12월 중순이 되면 완전하게 대한항공으로 합병이 되는 아시아나 항공사의 탑승이라서 나름의 의미도 있기도 합니다. 연말전에 어쩌면 또 타볼수 있는 기회가 있을것 같기는 하나.......
