Get Set!!

Okay...I have one more day to get ready for my trip to Prague. I still haven't finished packing yet and hoping that everything I want to take will fit into one suitcase duffle. I start to think of these things to do but it's really kind of too late to do them--like getting certain immunizations. It's not like I'm going to Africa where there's malaria! But I don't want to get sick, so today as I was shopping for healthy snacks (yes, I'm trying to stay with my weight watcher's philosophy) and decided to buy lots of over the counter medicines. First there's immodium for, well you know what it's for. (please don't let me have to use this!!) and there's advil PM (in case I can't sleep and have a headache). And of course there's band-aids, hand sanitizer...all of this and only one suitcase!!

I went to a luncheon for some friends today. We started talking about traveling abroad--and they got me to start worrying about pick-pocketers and being ripped off. So now I'm wondering if my backpack will be snuck into and all of my valuables stolen. I've decided to carry my wallet and phone in a little fanny pack stuck up under my chair. I just hope I'm not a "sitting duck!" I also gave these friends my blog address and told them to follow my adventures but most of them didn't know how to find the blog or what a blog is. I told them that I would post on Facebook too--but they didn't belong to that either. So, I guess some will just have to wait until I'm back to hear of my adventures!

I'll be glad when the time is actually here to go. That way I won't spend all this time worrying about what I don't have and what might happen to me when I get there.

  1. You'll drive yourself nuts if you start worrying about things like pickpockets. Just stay aware as you would in any large US city, and you'll be fine.

    Have a wonderful, wonderful time - I'm so jealous!
