Getting Closer

Am I ready?  Not yet.  I have a fair idea what clothes to pack.  And shoes.  Still undecided about cameras.  I can't find a new toiletry bag I like.  I want a soft one to squoosh into spare gaps in the suitcase.  But all I find are rigid-sided ones, all in patterns I don't like.  One important item is reading matter.  I have a small stack of books which, once read on holidays, I will liberate - hoping some other reader finds it, enjoys it too, then maybe passes it on to someone else or even leaves it, like I did, for another person to find.
