Our preparations are being hastily made, but we definitely do not seem to be in any condition to be boarding a plane the day after tomorrow. Nonetheless, we’ll be spending the next two days tying up loose ends and stuffing our panniers full of the gear we’ll be using the next two weeks. I realized that this trip has involved the least amount of planning and preparation of any of the other three, yet it seems like it ought to involve the most, since we’re traveling halfway ’round the world. I’m telling myself that it’s because we’re pros at this now, and we don’t need to spend as much time getting ready. Guess we’ll find out soon…
