Packing


The initial stage of packing is done. I have most of what I'll be taking picked out, and almost all of it is bagged. I'm sure I'll find a better way of organising things, but for now it's one item per bag. T-shirts seem to fit in a quart-sized bag, which is a pleasant surprise.

Plug adapters (ungrounded) are sold at Fry's for $2 each, and the grounded variety are $5 each. That's not a bad price at all. That ought to cover all of my electronics devices, which are all dual-voltage.

One other thing: The image above was taken on my new digital camera, whee! Thank you everyone at AC(S|T), at UCSD. I spent today reading the manuals. Also cool is that I discovered a 1 GiB card I had wedged in a digital camera that I was going to use as a project, but never did much with. Score! I was able to take the picture on the camera, pull the card out, put it in Sparky, open it in The GIMP, then upload it to Blogger. That I got The GIMP working is rather exciting.

I have one or two more things to procure, and then I'll be all packed. I intend to take care of that tomorrow.

Ooh, which camera did you end up getting?

I ended up getting the Canon Powershot A570, like you have. It's suitably fancy.
