Almost D-Day


60, yes, 60, even less. In 60 hours till I will enter the plane. Another 18 hours later I will arrive in Lima, Peru. Tired, after a long trip someone will be waiting for me, to take me to the Loki hostel where I will spend my first three nights.

These past days were very busy, tonight is the first evening I'm at home before 8 pm. My employer does not seem to be aware I will walk out of that building tomorrow and won't return.. Perhaps when I hand in my cell, laptop and car he will wake up. Anyhow, there will be coffee and cake, a speech, then....... goodbye..

Saturday, my final injections, cleaning my house, buying some stuff and packing my bags... Probably I will also be on the phone half the day. (by the way, I won't take my phone with me) Then, Sunday, closing the door behind me, returning no earlier then Februari 2008 :D Yes yes yes............

Preparations....

Time is ticking... Not just ticking, I barely realize that I'm leaving in 15 days. That in 15 days I will arrive in Lima, Peru and not return home for four months.

The past weeks I've been busy with some preparations, e.g. taking preventive measures against diseases, getting a new passport, etc.

Today was quite a busy day, I bought thermal clothes to keep me warm in the cold cold 'Andes'. Besides that I bought a sleep sheet and an additional memory card for my eos 400d and a card writer, so I can easily transfer data from the memory card to a pc or disc.. This will also simplify posting images on my blog ;-)

Regarding photography, for my camera I got myself a new daypack. And.. What do you think about it?

This is not even all... What do you think about this new gadget... Guess I'm well provided now to keep all of you updated!!! And this camera has a special youtube feature, lets see if I can make it work :D

Well, take care and till next time.
