The debate is raging, to carry on or not? Our friends and fellow volunteers and travellers, Terry & Roberta(who celebrate their 45th anniversary this week) are committing to one carry on each. YIKES. How would I fit in all those shoes and shirts? We will be gone for over 3 weeks.....so the thought of the same clothes over and over gets a bit hypnotic for me. T&R are convinced that we risk losing all our stuff(they remember the horrible loss of my jewelry on our Ecuador trip, but that's another story) if we check our bags.....more thinking on this one.
When I can figure it out, I'm going to post our itinerary and other tidbits for your reading pleasure.
And....now its time to tackle Vietnamese, I;ve been trying to do an hour a night of Rosetta Stone......and let me just say this.......it is very very very hard......
more later,
wishing Vietnamese was easier Barbara
Well...this is a nice set up for the trip notes. Thanx for posting our anniversary..a total mystery how it has all worked out. I am trying to figure out how to pack in one carry-on. I did cut out an article from the NYTimes, written by a travel expert who has very helpful hints, most involve rolling things..I think the flotation devices for the monsoons will be tricky...
ReplyDeleteNot to worry about your jewelry this time, we'll buy new stuff.
I don't think I can learn a single word of the language. My expertise lies in menu items. We will have to Velcro ourselves to you and Phil if we ever hope to find a bathroom.
Nice idea, this blog. Roberta
