Well, this is it. It has begun. The last few days have whirled by Scott and me like a blustery fall day, peppering us with goodbyes –to old and new friends, family and loved ones, and some of the less obvious things like English signage and running water. With both hearts weighted by these goodbyes, and lighted with excitement about the untold wonders that lie ahead, we strode onwards through a wind of passports and visas, various cables, bottles upon bottles of pills, and many packings and unpackings of our bags.<\/p>\n
We stood\u00a0amidst this bluster in the luxurious and\u00a0surveyed\u00a0\u00a0our inventory for the next ten months. Scott and I carry three items each. A general backpack, a technology\/carry-on bag, and our Dahon collapsible bicycles.<\/p>\n
We stared out across the gleaming carpet upon which all the equipment that was to propel us over these ten months was laid, and marveled at the immensity of what lay ahead. For those of you who are not so into inventories, by all means, cease your reading immediately.<\/p>\n
For the rest of you out there, who share Scott’s and my own propensity for lists\u2026 I give you without further ado, our inventory.<\/p>\n
