Getting it all together...

So Shereena and I are going to be jetting off in just 5 short days.... Around this time next week we'll probably be asleep after our first day of the holiday, and our first day in LA. I think we're shopping, and I'll be testing the waters of LA traffic and driving.. Interesting, it will be - driving on the right hand side of the road - left hand side of the car.

Anyway... In between now and then there's more than enough to keep us busy. We've both got to ensure that we've got everything needed to take away: clothes, toiletries, meds, camera gear, passport, cash, cards, tickets, passport, book, iPod (to take or not to take?!?) etc etc. Yes the standard travel deal all in all - but I've never been traveling for as long as a month before, so the volume required is a little different.

We also have our own things to do, I've got to finish a website, work till Thursday: even more stressful for Shereena, as she has her two day OSCE (right spelling - I think) assessment exam for Med! Anyway it's getting more and more exciting as time goes on, though we'll miss our little one... Mia :(

Apart from yabbering on, as I suppose most blogs do.. this is pretty much going to be a sporadic diary of our journey. Likely to be a mind dump at the beginning or end of the day, and more for us than anything, however this medium allows us to share the experience with all. Read along if you will, and if we can keep this updated regularly, we will. Relying on Internet cafes, and wherever else we can log-on will be 'fun'.. I'll also have to see, whether we can upload pics - depends on the access of the establishment.

I don't have any grandiose intentions with this Blog. It was simply a spur of the moment decision to create - and here it is. My mind dump at quarter to 1 on the Sunday morning before we jet off! Signing off.

Cheers, Nathan.
