Yes surprising how much those empty suitcases weigh, I cram suitable heavy things in my small backpack, I usually travel with 1 or 2 sisters, we pool everything that we have to take from OZ,like first aid items,roll on aerogard etc. we buy toothpaste,shampoo etc over there & also give them to staff etc. I peruse my clothing I decide what I'm sick of wearing, along with a couple items from Op shop, wear them over there & give them away, then there is more room & less weight(clothes weigh heaps)for shopping. I still hoping nothing more happens over there as I really want to go back but my daughters are frantic I shouldn't go. Although I love Bali I love my daughters more.
