Ok, didn't do my practice pack this weekend. Instead went on my last two mt. bike rides for what will certainly be several weeks. (I am hoping to get a little mt. biking in on the "vacation" part of my trip though in the northern Thailand hills.) But I did finalize my list tonight while watching the World Series. (poor rockies...) Anyway, I really want to pack light, but I already feel like I am over packing AND forgetting a million things. Help me out. Here is my list so far...
- Clothes
- 4 pairs socks
- 4 pairs underwear
- 1 pair jeans
- 1 pair zip-away pants/shorts
- 1 pair slacks
- 3 t-shirts
- 2 collared shirts
- 1 long-sleeved overshirt/sweatshirt
- Windbreaker
- Tevas
- Tennis shoes
- Swim shorts
- Exercise shorts
- 2 pair of hiking shorts
- Visor
- Passport
- Wallet
- Sunglasses
- Document wallet?
- Watch
- Camera (plus spare battery, USB cable)
- Laptop (plus power cord)
- Universal power adaptor
- Skype headphones and webcam
- glasses
- Ipod(s) (plus headphones, USB cable)
- GPS
- Meds (sleeping pills for flight, melatonin for jetlag)
- Vitamins (multis, emergen-C)
- Books
- Bangkok tattoo (fiction)
- Lonely Planet Thailand (2007)
- Time out Bangkok (guidebook)
- Daypack
- Razor
- Toiletries (toothbrush, paste, earplugs, deodorant, etc)
What else???

why do you need slacks?
they are lighter weight than jeans. and i might need to be semi dressed up (as dressed up as you can be in tennis shoes...) if it do end up meeting with some energy-efficiency people while i'm there. I guess i meant khakis, not slacks....
Do you need 2 pair hiking shorts and 2 collared shirts? Would one of each do?
Also, if you are doing carry-on only, you will not be able to take the razor or more than 3 oz. each of any liquid/gel (toiletries).
I guess you are also taking contracts & paperwork about your treatment.

If you haven't already left, I vote for fewer trousers/shorts. I think jeans suck to travel with. They're heavy, hot, and they take forever and a half to dry if they get rained on or washed. Have fun!!!
