Day 3 - Eat, Pray, and Scarves!
For some reason I woke up this morning and began thinking about the movie "Eat, Pray, and Love". Which, although it wasn't as good as the book (are they ever?) it was still a good movie. Most likely, because Julia Roberts was the star (I just love her movies) and I just loved the male lead that she falls in love. I first saw him in "Love in the Time of Choleria" and just thought he was such an intense actor.
Anyway, I digress. So as I was thinking about "Eat, Pray, & Love", I couldn't help but think about how many scenes had Julia Roberts wearing a trendy scarf. Which led to think that if I am going to be in Israel for 100 days... I am going to need a lot more scarves! Of course, this led me to think about how much (or more aptly "how little") luggage I am going to need to take on my trip. But for some reason, I seem to recall Julia Roberts only travelling with a light backpack. How did she do it?
Of course, it's probably easy to do anything when you are character in a movie, as opposed to a real person. But it did get me to thinking that how to pack for a trip like is something I need to research thoroughly. I would think that there are lots of travel books and/or travel websites that provide tips on how to travel minimally. So with that... I am thinking I might have to dedicate a page on my blog for all of the to-dos that I need to start working on.
In the meantime, it's time to comb through my closet and take an inventory on how many scarves I own.
