Tomorrow we finally return to Europe! Life at home in Portland is wonderful, but it has been too long since I've seen a medieval cathedral. The trip will be 2.5 months long and includes the Netherlands; Brussels; lots of England; Scotland all the way up to Orkney; N France; Switzerland; N Italy and Rome; Salzburg; and finally W Germany and Strasbourg just in time for Christmas markets.

More trains will be involved this time, so these little bags are all I'm taking! (But what they lack in size they make up for in weight, I'm afraid.) Should be another grand adventure, with many photos posted here along the way.

103/365: I do not know how to pack light. What if you need 3 pairs of shoes?

Anyhow, I took a hot yoga class earlier in the evening. I could have gotten some interesting pictures out of that only if I could feel my hands, or my entire body, during the class. Hot like heck!!!

re-packing a parachute in the loft

Chargers, batteries, memory cards, insect repellent, sun screen, toothpaste, power outlet adapters, etc.

I´ve been bullied about my way of storing and packing equipment, but as long as I know where I keep my crap, no one else should bother.

Hmm. Where the heck did I put my chocolate chip cookies...? And my chewing tobacco?

Nobelius & Co Nursery were a very famous business in the Hills and they owned a large estate near Emerald Lake. Their products were loaded into train from the Packing Shed and the associated siding for dispatch all around the State of Victoria.

Now the building has been restored into a function centre for use by the railway.

I'm really excited to get my Flickr going again because this semester, I'm studying abroad in London, England, for three months. I leave in eleven days and I have been so busy packing.

I just picked up a lovely 28-135mm lens at the local camera shop after reading several reviews that this is the best all-around travel lens. I cannot wait to try it out in Europe! I got a great deal because technically it was a "used lens," even though the first owner had it for only two weeks before he decided he wanted a longer zoom. With a student discount I got it for $230! It's in perfect condition...it still had the original bubble wrap and everything. I've been having fun playing around with it and so far... and I'm in love. The images are gorgeous, and this is coming from someone who only shoots prime lenses. I took this shot with my new lens, and I wouldn't have been able to guess it came from a zoom lens.

More recent purchases for my trip: A 16 GB CF Card (1,567 Raw Images, and I'm used to about 100), a one terabyte external hard drive (time to empty out my MacBook), a new camera case, and a soft pouch so I can carry my camera in my bag when I need to. My camera is getting spoiled!

下去台南五大包行李

上來台北四大包加一箱信鴿包裹

去程坐火車有人陪

回程坐客運則是單人座, 發揮超人神力地, 一人扛行李到車站

但一抵達台北, 我就隨著笨重行李坐上了有爸媽陪伴的老爺噗噗車

就這樣

一路安穩到家 ｡

I helped out for a couple hours (out of a total construction time of several days) on the assembly of Tom Leader's installation Debris at the Knowlton School. When we get to photos of the finished thing I'll link to Leader's description/illustration of the project, and maybe offer my own thoughts.

Packing hand luggage can be an exercise in itself, it's important to pack only the essentials for travelling on the plane.
