April 22, 3weeks,3days

How do you pack for a trip through 8 or 9 countries, 24 time zones, 4 1/2 months long and several climates? Lightly, very lightly. Extra coat, socks, underwear, pants or shoes weigh much more than the credit card that you carry to buy this stuff if you need it. And used clothing is cheap, new clothing in Vietnam is cheap-it's where Mal-Wart goes to supply their stores.
If you look at our backpacks and say "how can you take so little stuff?". then you don't know us. If you know us, you'll say "why are you taking so much?"
One more big roadblock out of the way, I got my passport with India visa back yesterday,
. If Carol's passport comes back as fast once she gets back from Canada, then that's the last of the pre-travel visa's needed. The rest are at the boarder visa's.
This security net came today, both our packs will fit in it. May supply a feeling of safety when we leave our packs in a hotel to travel around a city.
Seven more days of work, then get the RV ready to move and store and finish packing.
