The basics of the blog are at the TABS at the top of the screen (Home, About Me, Pictures, The Things I Carry, Here and There, Random Musings). Most of them are self explanatory but just in case I will fill you in on each. "Home" is the page you are on. Got it? Good. "About Me" is a brief bio of me. "Pictures" will be a page that I post the most exciting pictures that I take on my cheap 5 megapixel camera.... If I can figure out how to post them. "The Things I Carry" is a list of everything, and I mean EVERYTHING, that I am taking with me. The purpose of that is to try and show you why I am wearing the same clothes in just about every picture. "Here and There" is a place I will be writing what I miss the most about the USofA and what I would be doing if I were there and comparing it to what I am doing in South America. "Random Musings" is basically if I have a thought that I absolutely have to share with you all, but it doesn't fit in any of the other categories. Warning: When I say random I mean very very random. You don't know how weird I am...
Apart from all that I will trying to do this trip in the cheapest manner possible. I have already spent around $300 on immunizations and malaria tablets and close to the same amount on gear. We leave at 10:55pm from LAX on the 4th, stop in Florida, then after a 4 hour lay-over we are off to Colombia. I hope this blog is intriguing enough that you follow along!
PS If anyone knows how to get music to play on the blog I would love to know you're secret.
