First Post!

Only 48 hours to go and the bags are packed!  In fact they have been packed and repacked over the course of this week around five times.  What does a girl take with her when going away for two months?  The Laptop and hard drives plus Camera and lenses are at the top of the list believe it or not.  As St Helena and Cape Town are coming out of winter my assumption on the clothes front is layer everything.  I may end up looking like Bibendum (the Michelin man)  on this trip but I dont think there are going to be many fashion moments along the way.  And if I'm wrong a little bird has told me that Cape Town has some great places for clothes bargains.  The same little bird has told me that Cape Town is one of the cheapest places in the world for hair and beauty treatments!  So there is every possibility that there may be some repacking in South Africa!
