Day 1 Cycling the Erie Canal


We thought we would leave Monday (July 16th). Usually before we go on a trip I wig out about all there is to do to prepare and start yelling at everyone. Jonathan never understands why I freak out ("all you need is a pair of underwear and a toothbrush- what's the big deal?"). For this trip though, I didn't freak out. That is because Jonathan was in charge of the majority of the packing. This is why instead of leaving Monday morning, we left Tuesday afternoon. It became completely overwhelming: cycling gear, rain gear, camping gear, cooking gear, baby gear, camera, clothing, food, tools, maps, etc. In fact we almost called it off on account of how much of a pain it was to prepare!
