The evening before we leave for our amazing adventure we find ourselves at the Comfort Inn next to the airport. As I am not a morning person by nature, the proximity to the airport means that I can stay in this giant, king sized bed as long as possible. As we will be in a studio apartment soon, I doubt we'll have this much sprawling space for quite some time.
Packing took several days over the Christmas holiday. We managed to get everything we are taking into 3 large suitcases, 2 carry-ons, and 2 backpacks. Some people have asked "how do you pack for 14 months?!?". This is a very good question. A large portion of the luggage is devoted to essentials (underwear and socks), but we also have a number of shirts and pants along. While we mostly have clothes, we also picked up some meds while we are still able to read the labels. One of my fears is mistaking korean foot cream for toothpaste so we also grabbed a few tubes of that.
Moving went very smoothly. I think we chose the warmest day in all of December. We really lucked out because the next day even the snowman outside our apartment was banging on door so he could come in to get out of the wind.
A special thanks to all who helped us move!!!!
More to come and we will try to get some videos up too so we can show you everything!!
Woot woot!!
I figured you might "forget" the pants...have fun! and dont forget about your good friend mil.
