Hello,
Here is the first memo in this travel diary.
Today is P Day! (pack day)
So the suitcases are out, the clothes are chosen and whatever else is getting tossed about.

Yesterday, Adele and I went to Packables,a store, and we learned how to leave behind much of the miscellaneous and just in case I never do laundry or in case I maybe need this or that stuff. We were amazed at the shrinkage in our 'amount to bring'.
So...we bought another suitcase to keep all of little pile of stuff in.
Yes, this is getting close to goodbye now.
Bye.

No, you belong on the other side of the suitcase. You will be carrying it.

Deb at Packables really taught us a thing or two. Keep the small pile and reject the rest.
