Off to Brazil
I’m off to Brazil to work for three weeks tomorrow. What with my slightly dodgy health situation, and leaving our new house just when I’m settling in, I can’t say that I’m as excited as I might be about going. It’s also a long time to be away from Mr. Bsag. At least this year, we got to celebrate our Wedding Anniversary together (it’s today).
Still, I’ve got several tonnes of equipment crammed in a suitcase with some clothes filling the gaps, checked my hand baggage repeatedly for any deadly liquids, gels or creams (aaarghh! lip salve!), and I have a big roll of gaffer tape to fix anything that needs fixing, and to effect emergency surgical repairs. Gaffer tape can hold anything together, right?
See you all when I get back, and have a great September.

Will you have the chance to get out of the city at all? A country as vast as Brazil certainly warrants some exploration and photographing, if you get the chance.

Have a good trip. My wifes essential survival kit for 3rd world travel since 1972 does not include gaffer tape but instead consists of ketchup, flashlight and toalet paper. The 3 things hang together in practice in a sort of eternal consquent action and reaction moebius chain of usage. For myself many paged science fiction epics are the most essential survival tool. Aren´t you returning to the wetlands again? Happy anniversary.

Good luck with your travelling.
One item that my partner and I always travel with is dental floss. May seem bizarre, but an excellent (and useful) substitute for string should the need arise!

I Hope you have a great trip, and also hope that your 'dodgy' health may be glowingly restored by exposure to the bossa nova, feijoada, and the wonderful people of Brazil. To revisit a previous topic (hope this is not a violation of blogiquett)-I Did finally see "Me and You and ...". I can't remember a movie that was at once so sweet and loving yet able to explore so many of life's difficulties. Agreed that is was a courageous film. Also- how refreshing to see main characters who are working class. . Thanx for recommending "MAYAEWK" -Tim
