It's hard to believe that in one week's time, Milla and I will be en route to Ecuador (we'll probably be in the air between Houston and Quito). It's mostly because there's so much to do between now and then! What with the inevitable pre-trip socialising with people I'm not going to see for 2 months, wearing in my "remedial" travel sandals and packing up my ever-expanding stuff to put into storage, there doesn't seem to be a huge amount of time to think about the actual travelling! That said, taking my first antimalarials today made it all the more real.
I suppose that waiting for results is the top priority anyway. Roll on Friday already, so we know that we haven't failed anything and have to curtail the travels.
Still, things are moving along. Instead of just obsessive list-making, I actually went to Selfridges and Boots (with a list, of course) and went slightly mental, buying pretty much everything. I'm pretty sure I'm well stocked up on sunblock, padlock and other toiletries, but not sure I've got enough mosquito repellant... emergency trip to Boots?
For now, I bid you adieu whilst I catch up on my trash TV for the last time - coping for 2 months with just a rucksack and three pairs of shoes, none of which are heels, is bad enough, but I have to not be on the cutting edge of Glee and Gossip Girl as well? Man alive. I leave you with the youtube video of that classic Sash song, "Ecuador", to get you into the mood.
