Packing List

This post will be updated as we figure out the things we need to haul along with us over our three months of travel.

Every travel guide we've got (mostly Lonely Planets) say to pack light; no one ever comes back saying they packed too little. So we're going to be very skimpy on our packing list.

Since we're traveling from late summer to late fall, our packing has to accomodate the change in weather from hot and humid to cold and snowy. The best way, we think, to do this is to use layers.
