Clean-up, Pre-Trip

OK, hopefully I did not mess up anyone's rss feeds this morning. There were a few posts from my old blog that needed to be transferred over (mid-2007) and I migrated posts from our Germany 2006 travelogue to here. Thus, 2006 posts are all accounted for!

Right now, we're in the 48 hour bubble for a few more hours...I finished tearing out the relevant pages of our guidebooks and matching them up with paper print-outs of our hotel reservations and subway (U-Bahn and S-Bahn) maps that I printed from the transit websites. We learned the hard way by trusting an old map of the Berlin system...back when the Hauptbahnhof was truly at a different station...and we arrived at the new Hauptbahnhof...which put us about 3 stops back in reality. Confusing!

Ryan had a great idea to reuse some packaging that our travel underwear came in for guidebooks. Wouldn't you know it, the pages fit perfectly! So I have three fantastic stacks of guidebook information, all packed chronologically for the trip!

Today will be toiletries, cleaning the yard (already bagged 5 bags of leaves yesterday), cleaning the cars, and final prep before the big day.

Tschüß!
