Leaving tomorrow!

Tomorrow we leave Canberra and our next cruise is now only 5 days away.  I'm looking forward to this; it's almost a year since I stepped foot on a cruise ship and I'm having withdrawal symptoms :-)

Packing is all done, although not without challenges.  Singapore is going to be really hot and sticky, and I'd guess that it will be quite warm for the first few days of the cruise.  However, the weather forecast for the three ports we visit in Australia hints at much cooler weather, and it will definitely be cool at sea once we get to the south of Australia.  Not that we mind cool weather, but packing for both hot and cool weather is always a bit tricky when you're trying to stick to one suitcase each.  Usually the problem with luggage weight is the airline(s) but this time we only have one flight which has a 30kg per person baggage allowance.  However, getting to and from Sydney on the train is the issue this time - we can have up to three bags each but none of them can be over 20kg (and we've found that they're really strict about this).  My bag is 19.9kg according to our scales, so we could be up for a quick re-organisation if the scales at the railway station disagree :-)
