My First Challenge

Over the last couple of months I've been reading various blogs and articles on line with regards to what to take on a trip to India - it's very clear that women must not expose any flesh from the knees and elbows down or have their chest exposed!! 

Have invested in a few Ail Baba leggings (would be seen dead in them here!!) and light weight tops.  Would guess it will be cheap to buy anything else I need to wear when I'm there. The majority of my packing list seems to be lotions, poshions and items it stop the bed bugs!! 

I am going to write a list of everything I take and at the end of my trip will see what has been the most useful and what has been a complete waste of space.

Well I have managed to get everything in the main back pack and it weights in at 15 KG - so will use the clip on pack as my hand luggage! Never thought I would get it all in!! 

A massive thanks to the team in Boots - I have brought 4 x TSA padlocks and this morning while trying to set my own security code found they did not work!!  The Boots team got it sorted  for me and I now have 4 locks that work and hopefully will keep my luggage safe.

Keep having thought like - this is the last time I will blow dry my hair before before I get home and this is the lasnt time I will hoover!! Weird I know.  Have a real mix of emotions ranging from being so excited to thinking maybe I should just not go...... Anyway got an hour before the taxi picks me up so will have a glass of wine relax and check I can upload to my blog!! 😀😀
