Today was do or die with the packing. Here is our pile.
We closed the 18-gallon Rubbermaid tubs by drilling holes in one side and using cable ties to make a hinge. One the other side, we drilled a hole and put in a TSA approved lock. After we run to the store again, we're going to put brightly-colored duct tape around them to hold them shut tightly, and we're going to write "Humanitarian Aid" and the name of our hotel.
By the way, we are staying at the Addis View Hotel.
Wow! We're almost on our way!
