Packing for OpenSQL Camp 2008… dropping Phoebe off at daycare in the morning, and straight on to the airport. No worries, her mum will pick her up in the afternoon ;-)

Decided on a lightweight approach, handluggage only. Got a little suitcase that satisfies the requirements and actually used it earlier this week for a Melbourne trip…. then realised that I actually have a Tom Bihn professional laptop backpack from about a decade ago, and it’s actually also within the size specifications. Just need to make sure it stays light enough, but the backpack should be lighter than the suitcase.

If you’re coming to OpenSQL Camp too, see you there!

Brisbane Australia – LAX – Washington DC – Charlottesville VA. The flights will be a joy and a pleasure, I’m sure. 26 hours travel time in total (with airport waits included). If I appear incoherent on arrival, please add chocolate + water and I should be ok ;-)
