Packing!

Woohoo! The countdown is on! 4 days until we leave and it's time to pack, although anyone who knows me well would know that I started packing a week ago because why leave things to the last minute? As always the goal is: LESS.

Food & Drink: Water bottle; utensils; grocery/lunch bag; plastic bags for sandwiches (and pastries, scones, cookies, candy and so on).

On the plane: we're flying standard this time so no fold-down beds sniff sniff. Neck pillow; eye mask; ear plugs; melatonin. 

Electronics: UK adapter; laptop; phone cords; portable charger.

Outerwear: Raincoat; ear warmer

Toiletries: First aid bag (lots of Advil for my knees); toothbrush bag to carry on; shampoo & hair care. (Not sure if the cottage will have shampoo.)

Clothing: 2 pair hiking pants; 2 T-shirts; quarter zip pullover; 2 hiking socks; nightgown; 3 undies; bra; swimsuit; towel; hiking shoes.

Everything: Backpack for carry on and hiking; need to add walking poles.
