So.
Everything having to do with my sister's visit and the trip to Paul's cottage has been worked out. :-) How? My sister is coming *next* weekend, rather than *this* weekend. :-)
Which means: Paul and I will be happily heading to his family cottage (With his family) for a few days. :-)
Things to bring:
Warm clothes (for layering)
bathing suit
Towels
sarongs
warm nightgown
Sleeping bags? (I need to check on this one...)
Sun Screen
Bug Repelant (sp).
Tissues & toiletries.
Food:
Two dinners, Two breakfasts, and one lunch (for both of us).
There will be burgers one night, and either a stir-fry or a pasta dish the next. Yoghurt and fruit smoothy for breakfast, and squash soup for lunch (possibly with bread).
Drinks and Snacks:
Raspberry White Zinfandel
Water (3L -- no running water means that we hand-pump the water for the dishes... It is quite drinkable, but is sometimes gritty. Yuck.).
Dried Fruit and/or Fruit-to-Go snacks
Chocolate/ginger-cinnamon cookies (probably from a store)
Possibly muffins/scones... (If I end up cooking...)
Chips of some sort? (Perhaps an assortment of Ms. Vicky's...)
Entertainment:
Books (two. Probably Terry Pratchett books... Potentially hard-covers...)
Deck of cards
Drawing/writing paper and pens/pensils...
Anywhoo.
I have to figure out how to cart all of this stuff along a trail for 15 minutes or so. There's a bridge that may be washed out, so we may have to walk all our stuff in... Most of it's pretty light. I'm mostly worried about sleeping bags, water and books.
Anywhoo. I think I'll quickly pack some of this stuff (probalby clothes) and then hit the grocery stores (loblaws, produce depot... possibly bulk barn...) to pick up the food for this venture. (Maybe I should try to walk it all home, and see if that works... ;-)
- Nam'ara,
- Amazon. :-)
