Yet another pre-trip update
April 23rd, 2003 , 18:41
Yet another pre-trip update. We went out at the weekend to do a bit of trip shopping. It was mainly to get the rucksack mended; the zip is busted and we’ve taken it in to see if it can be repaired. Good news is that it may still be under warranty but the bad news is it probably won’t be ready before we leave.
The other bit we went out to buy, a digital camera, we did not get. We walked into PC World all ready to spend the money and get the Kodak camera that they had on special offer; however, the person behind the camera counter walked away without even looking at us. We had time to stand there and discuss why we were getting the camera, how we would use it, what cameras we would take on the trip, how we would upload the photos, not to mention walk around the shop to find the other bits and pieces we would need. We then stood there and discussed why we wouldn’t need the camera. In all this time several PC World sales people walked by us. But they gave us enough time to decide that we really didn’t need a digital camera right now. So no photos til we get back!
We are of course watching the information on SARS quite closely. We haven’t changed plans yet, but are keeping in touch with whether or not we can go from China to Japan and are ready to fly out of Mongolia if we have to. Be a shame to miss China though.
