People have been asking me for days if we are packed. Packed? NO! It’s an hour before the airport and I am just putting my trip playlists together! I spent the whole day running around only to  come home a few hours before heading to the airport, haphazardly throw everything into a suitcase and think of a few things half an hour later I couldn’t believe I may have forgotten (cosmetics bag, earrings, SHOES) and now I feel semi-prepared.

I am the worst packer ever. I knew today after putting the first two items into a suitcase, both items of which I NEVER WEAR, that I was failing the packing test already. I also am being weird and taking some vitamins with me, which is stupid because I NEVER remember to take them here, let alone take them while travelling. I also hope Hennie has packed a plug thingy for South Africa or else I won’t be able to use a hairdryer! That would be a disaster. Hennie is also official guarder of the passport. I can’t be trusted. Last time I used it was for a shopping trip down to the states. I returned with some AMAZINGLY CHEAP clothes but also without my passport. This barely scrapes the surface as to why I can’t be trusted with an official government document, but that’s another story.

Well wish us luck, I’m going to go sit on my suitcase to see if I can close it.  Trip begins now! South Africa here we come!

P.S-Accidentally ate some gluten, plane ride is now going to be awkward…sorry everyone!
