Coming across a downtown Farmer's Market after work when heading back to the hotel was the perfect excuse to wander.
Ready to go on holiday the USA requires packing everybody and everything into the car ready to go to the airport.
Littlies need to be strapped into the car safely. All the luggage in the big boot (trunk). And away we go.
About 10lbs overweight and about a gallon too big. Two days to refine the packing list!
If I can't get it down I'll have to use my bigger pack, which doesn't fit as well and tends to give me nasty bruises...

Yesterday I read about a program that uses isight cameras to create time lapse videos called Gawker. I set my macbook up to make a video of some packing we did today. I plan on setting it up on Friday, when we move everything into the truck.
Every room in the home can be a challenging experience for the family on #moving day. However, there are some rooms in the home that may take a little extra time, effort and care than others in the home. One of the most notable is the master bedroom since it can be packed with a lot of nice things that the homeowner loves and want to remain in mint condition throughout the move. Fortunately, for those of you who may need a little help in keeping your efforts from being in vain, here are 3 tips that can help you to accomplish your goal.
Tip #1 – Move Your Clothes First
The master bedroom can present some challenges. Specifically, for homeowners who have a lot of clothing items, shoes, hats and other things in your closet. To avoid traveling to your new home with boxes filled wrinkle #clothing, there are some things that you can do to prevent these issues from happening. For example, you should make sure that you have specialty boxes, garment bags, packing paper and any other packaging supplies that will assist in moving valuable pieces that you do not want to see ruined. The boxes that you prepare should also be available for storing your expensive shoes away too. Therefore, before the day of the move, you should make sure that you have all of the packing supplies that you will need for each type of item that will need to be packed.
Tip #2 – Disassemble the Master Bed
Because master beds can be constructed and dissembled in different ways, it is best for everyone involved to pay careful attention to the details. In fact, to make these jobs go swiftly and much easier, most people will make sure that they have the right power tools at hand for these disassembles. These power tools are great for making sure the screws and nails will not strip the wood or cause any type of damage. Also, once the bed has been taken completely apart, it is important to have the right type of packaging, boxes, wrapping, packing tape, and any other packing and supplies available to ensure the structure of the bed and its materials are well protected for the transport. In some cases, each piece of the bed can be wrapped first in order to provide an additional level of protection for this type of furniture. By wrapping these items in heavy duty plastic, people can avoid damages that can be very costly in repairs.
Tip #3 – Move Other Items Out of the Room
Unfortunately, the bed dissembling is only the start of moving other items in the #master_bedroom. So, it is very important to pay special attention and care with the organization of this part of the process. Typically, the dresser and the drawers are often moved just as is to cut down on any unnecessary confusion and extra effort. However, the items in these pieces of furniture are always boxed up. In fact, pictures and China are moved from the walls and other places and then marked fragile so that they can receive the added care. Especially, when moving these furniture items are being moved from one location to another. In short, the entire room of furniture and other items must be moved strategically.
My packing schedule for the day:
11:30am - wake up
11:45am - watch Jonathan Ross on demand
13:00pm - pack two more boxes, run out of parcel tape and realise only one box left
13:30pm - drink tea, go on a box begging hunt around the village (remarkably successful - car full of empty boxes!)
14:30 - get home, decide to make lunch and drink more tea.
All I can currently think about is what an epic fort I could make out of all those boxes!

Max has a non-retracting inner eyelid condition that makes her eyes red like you see here. It doesn't hurt her, but it does look odd.
The Secret Service established rules limiting the size bag allowed at inaugural events to 8 inches by 6 inches by 4 inches. This is what rode in my bag. There was also a Cannon A1000 riding along.
