Just checking in as we begin our final packing. Latest news is that we will "teach" our grandson's kindergarten class for a short while Monday -- let them follow us on the trip. I can hardly wait to sit in one of those tee-niny little chairs and tell them about the water going counter-clockwise down the drain in New Zealand, instead of clockwise as it does here, what penguins look like in real life, and where the Indian Ocean and Atlantic Ocean mix the blue and the green at Cape of Good Hope, etc.
Have chucked the back pack idea and will take our faithful suitcases, though a friend suggested we pack half and half -- so each case will have part his and part hers...in case of loss of luggage, we wouldn't be without clothes.
We are closing in on the loose ends...today checking on malaria, Hepititis A, and Tetnus shots and 90 days worth of prescriptions. There has to be lots of organization on the front end of a trip like this...I am hoping when we depart that I will cease to worry about details and just enjoy the journey.
I think the next time I post will be after May 1 -- as that is when we truly leave the country. I just wanted to let y'all know that things are working on the blog site...and that I will try to download the simplified itinerary with this.
Remember we are always available via email.
Take care in y'alls worlds...Sandy
