Shake Down!

Today, Claudia and I finally took the time to go through our backpacks together and compare notes. I had a lot of questions about minutia that needed to be answered, and we talked mostly about whether we needed certain items. For example, I’m not taking the raincoat, but am taking my rain jacket. Throwing caution to the wind there, but what the hell, you only go around once. No listerine or liquid soap. Que horror! Correct plugs for Portugal and Spain. Etc. etc. etc.

In the end, we both feel very good about minimizing our backpack footprint and very well prepared for our experience. Time will tell. Prayers are gratuitously accepted.Meer informatie
