Going on a trip. Need 4 outfits. Packed 35 just in case. ~ Anonymous
Honestly, it feels like I've been packing every day for the last two weeks!
Probably because I have...
But I'm beginning to see the light at the end of my nearly denuded closet--which tells me I've over-packed again but that's another post. Here's an abbreviated version of my list:

I'm a pretty accomplished packer if I do say so myself, but I don't pack for my DH. In fact, I broke him of it fairly early in our marriage. We went away for a weekend for which I organized a bag for both of us. However, I failed to pack ANY underwear for HIM.
He never asked me to pack again.

Had to giggle at tribble hair again :). And I hope some of those casual shoes are waterproof! That feature would feature prominently on this packing list if it were mine :)
ReplyDeleteNynke! So lovely to hear from you!
DeleteMy blue sneakers and red loafers are pretty good for hikes--at least for the length of trekking I'll be doing. We are expecting possible showers, but I don't think we'll be out in the elements too much. We're planning a cruise to view Pulpit Rock from the fjord in Stavanger, a trip to Grieg's house in Bergen, a train trip from Flaam, and a Troll-themed tour in Alesund. Oh! and we're going to Stonehenge from Southampton. Hopefully, we won't get too soaked anywhere, but we don't let a little water stop us.
