Sunday...

Well, I'm beginning to feel like it's coming together.

Got a bunch of the small stuff I needed at Freddie's yesterday.

I want to put all my stuff together and see how it fits in the backpack. I was hoping that my day pack would come from LL Bean today but it didn't. I have to take apart the guide books that I want to take since the whole books are going to weigh more than I want to allow for weight. But I think I've got a good handle on the weight thing - 17# in my main carry-on and maybe 8-10# in my "personal item", which is basically a "purse". I'm taking the day bag as my "personal item". I'll have the books, electronics and chargers, medications and "toiletries" in that bag as well. In the big backpack will be the clothes and other pair of shoes.

I actually started getting excited last night! The stuff is coming together and the emails from the Czech Republic have been fun! I still want to get some cache pages printed off and other minor things like that but I could even get that information once I get there. I located the ATM at the airport and transportation from the airport to the hotel is right outside the airport door. I even found a photo of what the vans look like!

I'd still like my website to be updated with at least some information on the main page that links to my blog. But if that doesn't happen, oh well. Life is good!

So I'm going to go lay out my clothes and see if I can pack the backpack....

More later!
