On our way!

The last few days have been interesting. It's hard to think about the fact that we'll be airborne to Asia shortly when right now we're still working on the farm - fixing equipment, cleaning bins, etc. Hopefully it sinks in shortly so that we can get our butts in gear and start packing. We each have one 55 litre backpack and we only want to fill it about 2/3 full so that we have room for other stuff and room to jam the bags into tighter spots...but trying to determine what is a "necessary" item to pack and what is a challenge.

So yeah, we're off Monday to Vancouver. Tuesday we have a 11.5 hour flight to Hong Kong, followed by another 3 hours to Bangkok...with the whole time change thing, we leave Tuesday afternoon and arrive there at midnight Wednesday night, so we lose around 14 hours on the way there...but there we will be! We have our first 4 nights booked and then the rest we'll have to figure out as we go. We will do our best to be regularily updating the blog with lots of pictures and stories and we would love to hear from you all via email so that we can stay in touch with what you're all up to as well.

Lastly, we may change the format of our blog entries a bit...instead of just telling you what we're doing, we may start doing our own individual "journal" entries to chronicle our own thoughts and feelings about the trip a bit more.

Anyway, that's all for now.....see you soon ;-)
