Packing Day

It looks like it is nice and warm in Shymkent this week. At least it means I can pack lighter weight clothes. I am trying to decide what clothes to bring. Today is packing day. I have my carryons packed and everything fit. This is amazing since I had to get a new smaller carry on. I guess European airport rules require smaller carry ons. I have my first check in bag packed and it weighed in at 47 1/2 lbs! As long as it is under 50 I am happy. However, it does not have any clothes for me- only toys and clothes for the baby and some gifts for people there. Now I am off to pack the second bag. Maybe I will even be able to fit some clothes in there!

For my blog friends-Just a reminder- please do not post anything about my travels on your blog or on any board as Shymkent is a region VERY sensitive to this. I know you understand this already, but I just wanted to remind everyone. Thanks for understanding.
