Ah yes, the favorite part of everyone’s vacation packing. Well, we’re not packing yet but as always I figure I better write down what I intend to bring. Now if it all fits, well that’s another issue.

So I’m going with the black shoe theme again this year and since what I’ve read indicates Israel is a much more casual country than say France, England or Italy, I feel comfortable bringing some jeans. I also don’t mind the bit of extra weight they bring b/c 1) now that I’m smaller, I figure my jeans weigh less 2) Chris will be along to help :D.

So here we go:

Clothing – Pants

  • Stone pants (assuming I got that stain out of them in the wash)
  • kacky pants
  • black pants
  • black jeans
  • blue jeans
  • Kacky Capris

A note on the pants, I will be wearing one of these (probably the jeans) on the plane. Second note, subsequent to this and after checking the weather reports, I think I’m bagging the capris.

  • Yellow 3/4 length top
  • Paris looking top (don’t ask)
