One Month to Go!

As the city bustles and hustles with Holiday glee, we are minimising, packing and saying our goodbyes. This last month is sure to be the busiest and most stressful. Last weekend we packed our bags (panniers) as though we were leaving the next day. As  you can see above it became a real mess. We sectioned off pieces of the room for each of us with masking tape. It was similar to show and tell that you did in Elementary School. We discovered that we are still missing quite a few things.

With Christmas coming up and both Oki and Erika’s birthday in December we are hopeful we will obtain all that we need. We have let go of some “desires” such as bringing a Canon G10, and a few other luxuries we do not absolutely need. If you would like to help we’ve made it extra easy by creating a gift registry at www.rei.com

Oh yes, mark your calendars for Saturday, January 9th 2010. We will be hosting “The Big Goodbye”. Our farewell party at the house of two generous supporters. There will be food, drinks, and the opportunity to make connections with all of the inspiring contacts we have here in Anchorage.  We will have information about our route, will be looking for your wisdom and advice if you have traveled to a place where we will be going. This evening will be one of the last times to give/get hugs, photos and bid us farewell, we leave 5 days later.  More formal invitations will be sent out closer to the date. Until then, Happy Holidays from the Que Hubo bike team.
