I'm sitting here feeling very superior as I can hear other memberes of the Platt family crashing about the house trying to organise their things while I admire my rather splendid rucksack, all bulging with clothes to last me for 6 weeks. This little ego trip of mine isn't helped by the fact that I've also managed to cook a pretty epic tarte flambée for lunch, perhaps my best one yet. Alas, having such a laissez-faire approach to a month and a half of travelling will probably be my downfall. I keep remembering little things I need to do, but at least I know I have all the essentials I could possibly need.
It feels a little odd to be leaving, especially as I've had almost no time to think about it what with everything else that's been going down in the last couple of weeks, but it's also extremely exciting! I need only stroke my now-shaven face to remind myself of what's to come :)
Take-off is at 2030ish, and we've got a brief stopover in Qatar. My next post will be from abroad, and with photos!! As for now, I think I should actually go and do something helpful like the good son I sometimes am.
