The Things We Brought...

Everyone wants to know- "What are you taking with you?" We have packed and repacked our bags many times trying to meet the weight requirements: 80 lbs each!
The final weigh-in!
We told Cori that she weighed too much to make the cut!

As you can see, we have a lot of stuff- but come on, for 2 years, its really not that much stuff!
So what is all of this? Here is a sample list of what we are bringing:
Clothes & shoes
Rain jackets
Shortwave Radio
Camera (digital & polaroid)
The Golden Girls Seasons 1-3 (I'm not kidding)
Nalgene bottles
Solar shower
Duck tape, ziploc bags, tupperware
Hammock
Cooking spices
School supplies
Public health books
Hand sanitizer
2 flashlights & 2 headlights
Waterproof matches
Photo albums
2lbs popcorn (Again, I'm not kidding)
Garden seeds
Kickball (thanks, Missy- the kids will love it!)
And much more...
The final pack-up!

  1. Question: how do you plan on making that popcorn??
    Also, want to know how many liters of hand sanitizer you brought? lol, and let us know how the solar shower works out? though I imagine you will enjoy the cold showers!
    Pretty amazing how you can let go of sooo much stuff in the US and pack a life into several bags.
