The Return…

Friday, November 2nd, 2007

So, after lot’s of discussion… we decided to be a bit more purist in how we’re going to approach packing. That means lot’s of returns… So, I ventured back to REI and as I walked through the store to the return section I found myself more flattered than weirded-out by the fact that 3 employees said something like “hey, back for more?”… or “just couldn’t stay away, could you?”… to “Where’s your wife? you guys are still doing kilimanjaro right?”…. and a fourth saying “Where’s Paula?”…

and to the Return’s person who said “OK that’s it for your returns… and here’s your online order for 1 … (pause) … women’s, um, small… er, uh… boy-short style underwear…” my response was ~~actually that’s for my wife~~ “Sweet”.

17 Countries, 6 weeks, 1 pair of underwear….

Sunday, October 21st, 2007

Packing has been an issue for the trip. Since we are backpacking, how does one have all the necessary clothes for 6 months at once AND be able to carry it all day long if required? The answer is layers, and things that clean and dry quickly. Add to that that paula and I have recently decided to add climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro to the trip (the tallest mountain in Africa at over 19,000 feet and renowned as a great life experience), we are going to have to pack for both hot and (very)cold alike.

So for some advice, we went down to REI. REI is a local outdoor-sy type store specializing in camping/hiking/climbing/etc. Nearly 5 hours later we emerged… on a first name basis with half the staff (even gave our email address to one woman so she could get in touch about Kilimanjaro), a bit poorer, but with underwear that has “17 countries, 6 weeks… one pair of underwear” on the packaging. The point is that they dry quickly so you can hand wash them at night and they are ready for you in the morning. Being the skeptic, I decided to buy 2 pairs… ya know.. just in case.
