One day to go. It’s Friday and I have finished packing.
Everything seems to be different this time. I pack a big suitcase PLUS a bag –
and with my hand baggage I will probably be just below the allowed weight
limit.
This is the complete opposite of my usual travel with just a bag. But
there is so much to take with me – business clothes AND clothes for my travel
after the assignment (this also means trekking shoes for the walking safari), a
larger than usual medical kit, food and little gifts to distribute, of course
some Swiss chocolate, although I fear it might melt., in my hand luggage I carry my laptop, all
logistical documentation, my Ghana travel guide, my kindle (this at least saves
me from carrying some books!), the camera and a change of clothes in case my
bags don’t arrive or arrive late. It is wonderful that KLM allows two pieces of
checked luggage for travels to West Africa! I
will web check-in now, and then I am really ready to leave tomorrow morning.
More to come,
Cynthia
Great job on the packing while still covering all of your bases. You will have to trade in your Swiss Chocolate for some local Golden Tree Chocoaltes in short order. The Golden Tree is a different texture which people find interesting but this major difference allows it to stay solid in the warm climate.
