10 days and counting! We have 4 very small packs (still have my original larger one sitting there if required) We practiced packing very little for our few days at the beach.....we just had to spend time at an awesome NZ beach before we set off! Also have the camera and am VERY excited about that. Am now brushing up on my Spanish, particularly the phrase "please speak slowly"! Its OK though as "una cerveza por favor" just seems to roll of the tongue!
