Only 52 Days to go........I can hardly believe that we are really setting off to do this!  We have been planning this trip so long and now the days and weeks are racing along.  Still quite a bit to get done before leaving home for 2 months!  Our packing list is included at the end of this entry (for those who are planning your own future trip!)  I think we have too much stuff!  We are so so so very excited!
 Any doubt where we'll be headed with this bike jersey?
