Hello everyone! Today is Friday May 21 2010 and my last weekend in Naples FL before heading to San Francisco! Looks like everything in Bangkok is going to be settled down by the time we make it there so it looks like we will probably stay a few days before heading out. All the pre trip hulla ballu is over, except getting my final Hep A/B shot on monday. I was able to fit everything i wanted into one day pack and one 22 inch carry-on. You'd be surprised at what you don't need when you dont know if you are gonna need it or not...hhhmmm
The anticipation of leaving on a four month expedition is really building! I cant stop thinking about so many variables. I've trained 4-6 months for races and felt just like this. You put all this time and effort into getting ready for so many unexpected scenarios that all you want to do is get going. I'm feeling like a gladiator waiting to be released to face down a starving tiger in the ring of the Coliseum! Ok maybe not that bad, but you see my point right? Anticipation is the drug on which ive been hooked and the only cure is to go go go!
