All my bags are packed - NOT!

Making a list and checking it twice, or more.   I will probably over pack, but not needing to check luggage at the airport allows that freedom!

Planning for most healthcare contingencies, I have packed a mobile pharmacy.  Should be able to treat most minor ailments without looking for a drugstore or visiting sick bay.

We have completed all sewing projects (a pair of linen slacks, evening jackets, shortening the sleeves on a new top, etc).

One recommendation was to apply permethrin to the clothing we will be wearing when hiking around the Amazon.  We completed that today as the weather conditions were finally favorable.  Both low humidity and calm winds are a rare combination in Indiana this time of year!

I think we have finished shopping.  The list seemed never ending as items were being added almost daily during the last month.  But with the purchase of additional memory cards for the cameras, extra batteries, and a couple Misson Towels, all items have been crossed off.

The challenge of getting it all in the suitcases still awaits.  Only two more days left to complete this task as we are leaving Friday morning!  Also need to get a pre-cruise haircut and set up my "out of office" notice on my e-mail.
