- Take everything out of suitcase
- Count the number of short sleeve and long sleeve shirts I've packed
- Debate if it's enough or too much
- Throw another pair of shoes in suitcase
- Make sure I have enough underwear
- Hug C-man and tell him how much I'm going to miss him
- Take pair of pants out of suitcase
- Put pair of pants back in suitcase
- Download some more onto my iPod for the hikes
- Check and recheck my camera bag
- Make sure I have enough yarn packed
- Read through the lists I've left for Mom and Dad
- Panic over the short time I'll have to show them where everything is
- Remember that they've stayed at our place before, and calm down
- Hug C-man and tell him how much I'm going to miss him
- Write 10 more things on each list that I've forgotten
- Look through my packet of tickets and go through the whole trip to make sure I haven't screwed up on the dates
- Do it all over again
The good news is that Beerman is already there and happily drunk. In fact, "There's beer Every.Where." was his last night's happy quote. In other words, just get myself the rail tickets and camera there, and it'll be all good. Europeans wear clothes, after all, right? So if I don't pack right, I'll just buy it.
Oh yeah, and if you want to hear updates on "The Rysewyk's European Vacation", without the Pig in a Poke gameshow, follow me on Twitter, yo. 'cause I'm hip with the kids.
