It's been a great relaxing weekend and I've been able to take care of some of the last minute details. Because I'm traveling overseas, I'm packing a few days worth of clothes and a tooth brush and toothpaste in my carryon. I had to go buy some of those items that TSA will allow in my carryon so I'm glad to have that done. Speaking of packing I think Dad and I are going to buy me some new luggage this week because mine is beginning to fall apart. Boring I know but I'm kinda excited about it.
As you can see I have read a ton about the country so I feel pretty prepared. My favorite travel guides have been the Eyewitness Travel guide. They show a ton of pictures which are great to me because I'm such a visual learner. Plus I don't think I'll be toting around a bunch of travel guides so maybe I'll recognize the places I want to visit from the pictures in the book.
I'm amazed at how many people have told me they are interested in reading the blog. Anyways, in 4 days I'll be on a plane headed to Hong Kong from Detroit.
