Count down

7.5 weeks, 52.6 days and 1261.7 hours until we leave for Kenya.  Started to get excited and plan to start packing in July.  Have to take a lot less items this time because when we fly the small plane from Kenya to Tanzani I'm told we can only take 38 lbs.  Hopefully they'll let us pay for any extra baggage weight because 38 lbs, away for 2 weeks, I don't see that happening.

  1. Pretty much all packed. Can't believe the trip is less than a month away. Not taking as much medicine as we did last time. We had enough supplies and drugs to do open heart surgery in the jungle :)

  2. Two and a half weeks. OMG. Now that I've packed I need to take out all but necessary items. Otherwise, I will be leaving 1/2 of the stuff with our guide in Kenya to comply with the weight limit we will face flying to Tanzania. Of course, I could just put layer after layer of clothing on and not have them in the duffel bag. HMMMMM.

    When planning a trip like this it is important to make sure your hiking boots still fit and are comfortable. So I have been trudging around the house with boots and while wearing shorts (pretty hot here).

    Received our final itinerary and instructions from the travel agent. Just have to go to the bank and exchange more cash for bills newer than 2006 or they won't be accepted. That really did happen to us in Uganda one time.
