I hate packing. I don't know how many times I have written that in this blog. I think I have written it right before every single one of my trips. But for anyone who missed out on that, I HATE PACKING!!!!
So, obviously since I am thinking about packing and writing about packing... and currently... not packing, you all know that I have my ticket!
I didn't choose either of the 2 options because I found one right in the middle! So, yay!! I did end up buying the ticket off cheapoair.com and now I'm kind of worrying about the whole baggage thing. I am flying 2 different airlines, American and Taca, so I don't really know what the policy is going to be on baggage. The flight I have on American is just from here to Miami I looked at the website... but it really wasn't helpful enough for this dummy. Taca's site however was much more clear.
When I came back here, my bags were extremely underweight. I threw everything in my bags the day I called to get my ticket date changed. When I checked into the airport in February, my bigger bag weighed 13 kilos and the smaller one weighed 14 kilos. The bags are allowed to be 25 kilos each so I left myself plenty of room to shop and also dig through some of the stuff I have here to see if I love it more than the last time I was home. I am also planning on packing 2 more of my favorite blankets since its going to be winter in Chile soon.
And I was planning on making som curtains because I am on so talented in the sewing department. Actually I am pretty good at sewing if I can get the sewing machine to cooperate with me in under an hour. I also have the wonderful mearsurements from my hubby. The window in the kitchen I need to make a curtain for is from the tip of his right middle finger to the left side of his face wide, and two middle finger to elbow lengths tall. I can't remember how big the other window is, so he is probably going to have to remeasure it for me.
Now, I better be off to see how heavy I can make my carry on bag.

On American you get 23 kilos, not 25 - so don't stuff your bags too full! You might also have to pay for checked bags, depending on whether or not they consider your TACA flight to be part of the same itinerary, since you now have to pay for checked bags on domestic flights.

Wooops! Taca's is 23 too...
