Getting ready for departure

I fly out on Thursday, but I've just finished packing today.  I think I might need to change the name of my blog though- I have 80 pounds of luggage (not including my carry on).  Holly Goes Heavily would be more accurate.  However, I have lots of things that I plan on throwing away after the 3.5 months to make room for all the souvenirs, gifts, and shoes I'll likely buy while I'm abroad!
