Just 3 days to go. It seems like I’ve been preparing for this trip for a very long time and that I ought to be all ready to go.
Well, there is more stuff than I could imagine in one pile next to a nearly full suitcase. Now what?
Our suitcases cannot weigh more than 50 pounds each and we are limited to two. I had hoped to carry just one suitcase.
What do I have?
- Gifts for students - 6 pounds
- Gifts for teachers and school officials - 8 pounds
- Snacks - 5 pounds
- Electronic equipment that I won’t carry-on - 4 pounds
- Suitcase - 4 pounds
- Toothbrush, tooth paste, soap, shampoo… - 2 pounds
So how much is that?
Oops! I forgot the clothes!
