We leave Toronto tonight for London and have completed our checklist:
Bags are packed and under the weight limit - check
Rain gear - check
Walking sticks - check
Hiking boots broken in - check
Mastered compass reading skills - check
Maps and guide book- check
GPS waypoints - not sure about that one....
Fitness levels achieved - hope so!
First aid kit - lots of blister pads, band aids, Advil, A535
Since January, we've gone on a number of hikes in nearby trails and parks, trying to do a fair bit of walking and climbing and have been spending lots of time on the elliptical, so we're as ready as we're going to be.
Even though we've traveled a fair bit, we have never been this apprehensive about a trip before. We're nervous and excited all at the same time. Peter is leaving behind his computer, blackberry and cell phone and so we'll be dependant upon Internet access availability along the route. We'll try to update when we can! Please pray for good weather.
