Packing...

You've heard the old advice for packing, right? "Lay out everything you are taking. Take half the stuff, twice the money." Ok well I halved and halved and halved again...and at least now it all Fits in my backpack. It's stuffed to the brim though, which doesn't bode well for souvenir-ing. I guess I'll have to figure out what I can live without (and there's not even a single pair of heels in that bag!). I'd rather abandon my possessions here, where I know I can recover them someday, than somewhere on an Incan trail. Caity, I just wanted to blog because I was so proud of myself for getting everything in the bag, but now I see that it's back to the old drawing board...
