T minus 45 days and counting

Well, it is June 17 and I am already getting excited and anxious about going to Peru for the next 10 months. I have done everything I think I am supposed to do. I have arranged for my malaria drugs, got my international driver's permit, gathered my vaccination records, registered my trip, and even just got my flight itinerary. There are so many other things I need to do though. I am sure that I don't have all the right equipment and clothes. I hope I don't end up overpacking, but I am not going to count on that.

I have a few concerns though. After looking at the pictures on Ansley's blogspot I am concerned about the bathroom. There was a wooden toilet, with a nice seat. However, the toilet was only partially enclosed. There was a wall missing. I am really hoping that they are just working on it or something. I guess we'll have to wait and see. But it would be strange to have to take care of business where anyone can see. It's a little disturbing, but I guess that's life in the jungle. haha.

We'll see how all my careful planning in these last 45 days turns out.
