And the list of things that still need to get done isn’t getting any shorter! I think the only really pressing things are for Frank and I to get International Driver’s Permits – gotta hit AAA tomorrow – and the kids have to have their checkups which I *know* will include tetanus boosters – fun, fun, fun!
Actually, it will be fun once we get going. Tomorrow night we hit the Serbian Crown for a combined Duncan’s birthday/bon voyage dinner then the packing gets finalized. Actually, I really should start. How soon should one start packing? People seem amazed that we aren’t all packed yet. We’re not leaving for two days – why should I be packed now? I need my toothbrush, sandals, etc. until it’s time to go; I don’t want them in the suitcase. Or maybe I’m merely justifying my procrastination (oh, 3 weeks on sabbatical and I can still come up with multisyllabic words! Let’s see how long that lasts!)

My take on it is, if you forget to pack something, you aren’t going to be in the middle of the wilderness. You will be able to find whatever you need over there. Good luck!
Have a fantastic time and send pictures to the website if you get the chance.
