Sorry I haven't updated in a month guys. Graduation and everything else was absolute insanity. But I'm back and I only have 23 DAYS TIL THE TRIP!!! I'm freaking out a little bit. Anyway this is gonna be a big post, so I'll cut into three. I thought I would update you guys on my gear, visas, and hotels. First the gear.
I managed to get a $200 backpack for only $100 thanks to eBags. High Sierra TR102 Railpass. Main Pack is 3050 cubic inches. Day Pack is 976 inches. Adjustable shoulder straps. And metal zippers, for better locking. Heres a pic:
Your trusty computer nerd is also bringing a nice little solid state, linux netbook so he can stay in touch with everyone. Dell is the only one who provides this kind of netbook, which is weird cause I feel like theres a market for this. And of course he is jailbreaking his iPhone so he can
twitter his GPS coordinates as often as possible. This way I can make a map of my whole trip at the end. Here's a picture of the netbook.
Finally I also found a $150 digital camera for $70. 10.1 Megapixels 3x zoom and takes AA batteries. The batteries are much better than charged in an emergency. Here's a pic of that as well.
Coming up after the break, visas and hotels.
