It's 2009!

January 1st is finally here so at least our trip is now THIS year! I've just been practising for pitching the tent..and it's a splendid sight to behold..though it's crowding the living room and so that means I'm gonna have to take the blasted thing back down...that or sleep in there tonight (I don't think so!). I'm pleasantly surprised by how quick and easy it was..though I think perhaps they forgot to colour code the poles like the instructions say. Definite relief that I went for the three person size..we'll comfortably fit in there with our bags :)

Trip countdown is now down to 144 days..of that only 88 are work days for me!! How exciting?!?

Wishing everyone a very Happy New Year in 2009, and hoping all your dreams come true :)
