8 days to go....

The hunt for shoes continues...
Nicole has realised that apart from flip flops she doesnt have any shoes (which are suitable) to take on our trip.
Having ordered a pair from Amazon in desparation and found them to be too big, she now has the job of trudging around the hiking, trekking and camping shops within easy reach to try and find something. Oh joy!

More boxes have been packed today and the girls went through their clothes, systematically! With our help of course! They now have enough stuff to last them ( plus washing a bit) until we go, and the following for packing...

  • 1 x trainers
  • 1 x flip flops
  • 3 knickers
  • 1 pair long pjs
  • 1 pair short pjs
  • 3 pairs of socks
  • 2 trousers
  • 2 shorts
  • 1 skirt
  • 1 dress
  • 2 long sleeved t shirts
  • 3 short sleeved t shirts
  • 1 bikini
  • 1 swimming costume and goggles
  • 1 hat
  • 1 sarong/scarf thing
  • 1 fleece
  • 1 pair jogging bottoms and hoodie for planes trains and other long travelling sections
  • 1 pair thick socks for planes


It still looks like shedloads! Will post a picture when it is folded neatly ready to go in the packs! They were very decisive about what they wanted to take and also ruthless about what they wanted to donate and not need on our return. A lesson learned!

More furniture is downstairs awaiting collection and rooms are slowly emptying.
