Packing, Packing and More Packing...

4 days and counting until lift off! We have our passports (check), We have our Visa's (check), We have our plane tickets (check). Are we done packing????? Uhm.....NO!

So Jack's suitcase is packed and I've probably packed way more than I need for him but I guess it's better to be safe than sorry.

Jeramy and I on the other hand have just started packing today (Monday, Labor Day). And I have to say this is probably the hardest part. Were working off 3 different packing lists. We have a weight limit and were only allowed one checked bag a piece with out paying extra ($150 for each additional bag!) So let's do the math here. We need 3 weeks worth of clothes (including accessories), toiletries, shoes, and any other necessities we think were going to need into 2 suitcases and 2 carry on. Urgh!

I've been told that we can get a lot of items there and really inexpensive also. I'm hoping the quality of most of the items we can get there are the same here.

We've already packed the video camera and the camera so we plan on taking a lot of pictures. I'll send the link once I get them downloaded when we get there.

We're coming Jack!

You sound like you are doing great with the packing but believe me, you really don't need all that much. Don't worry too much about the packing (less is more) anything you miss you can buy there. Most important thing, scabies cream just in case and bactroban. We learned the hard way.
Can't wait to continue to follow along.

Don't you get 2 checked bags apiece? And on the way back you can have a checked bag for Jack (so you could buy a cheap suitcase/duffel there).
