Things have turned to the colder and wetter here in Tottori, with snow even coming down a couple weeks back. It’s still quite a shock to this Southern Californian’s system, but a reprieve is on the way. My parents are headed to the Philippines for the holidays, and Bronwyn and I will be flying down to meet them tomorrow, while stopping in Seoul along the way for a four-night, five-day side trip.
South Korea is actually colder than Tottori, with a forecast of highs in the 30′s or high-20′s and lows as low as 8 degrees on Sunday. On the flip side, Manila has forecasts of highs in the 80′s and lows in the 70′s. How in the world do you pack for a trip like that and still keep your luggage light?
