:) I'm bringing:
- the monster camera, its filters, 3 camera batteries & charger, the separate flash and ITS batteries, 6 GB of Compact Flash (amongst the various cards), 1.5 GB of Memory Stick (amongst the various sticks)
- my 40 GB travelling photo harddrive since I don't have a laptop (*sniffle*). this, of course, necessitates 2 cables (power & connecting to camera)
- the monopod
- the iPod and its billion accessories, cords, charger, base, and a very hypothetical new attachment
- my new phone and its charger. my new blue tooth ear thingie and ITS charger so that I, too, can wander the world seemingly talking to myself
- my old phone and its charger since I haven't yet finished transferring all my old phone numbers (thank god I'll never have to do that again)
- hair straightener thingie because the hotel's blow dryers are wimpy and my hair needs strong discipline

Erm, I *think* that's it. Last night's packing is a bit of a hazy memory at this point.

I'm enjoying the story of the Luggage. I have a monsterous suitcase that we bought when we were spending 2 weeks in Alaska/British Columbia and a travel on. Those are the only pieces of luggage I own. I seem to have forgotten the mottoe of "moderation." Oy.
