So I'm ready for my trip: I fly out tomorrow morning. Pretty excited, a bit nervous. But it should be good.

My pack is a bit funny shaped - it's a good pack, just that the contents + tight compression straps = a bit odd. Taking more clothes than I took to China (I'll be away from any possibility for cleaning clothes for several days). But still plenty of space to pack some souvenirs in. It will be interesting to see how I go - it's going to take a lot longer to get to Lima (longer legs, stop overs at Auckland and Santiago), than my trip to China. But, it does take a little while to get around to the other side of the world.

R. from work suggested swapping memory cards every day. That way, if one card dies / is lost, then you don't loose a block of photos (ie: all of a country), but every other day, and so you'll still get some of the photos. Need to be disciplined and swap cards each day.

Just need to test putting a photo to this site, then it's off to bed.
