Pant-wetting excitment - nearly

D: I'd like to point out that I'm writing this at 6.40 in the morning. Damn hayfever alarm clock - wakes me up at 6 whether I want to or not. So if it's rambling, or makes little sense, that's my Get Out Of Jail card.

Anyhoo...

It's exactly two weeks 'til we fly to the States. Time, I think, to start thinking about what to take. Tech-wise, it's easy - lots of chargers. Clothing-wise however, is a totally different problem.

See, we'll have - more-or-less - three seasons of temperature to play with. From the cooler coastal towns of Morro Bay, Monterey and San Francisco, to the hot inland places like Palm Springs, Las Vegas and Death Valley. For me, not a problem... jeans, t-shirt, shorts and a fleece. Done.

For Lindsey though... 'MARE!! Her planning, cleaning and ironing has already begun.

Add to this the impending delivery of flat-pack kitchen units that will be appearing and cluttering up the house for the final few days before we go, then it's a hectic couple of weeks, without much chance to sit back and actually think about the enormity of the holiday ahead.

Still... two weeks to go! Can't complain :)
