Oh the Place We Will Go, and The Stuff We Will Lose

That is what Dr. Seuss naively forgot to mention in his children´s masterpiece.  No matter how carefully you plan your vacation and what to bring, you lose stuff and break stuff on the way.  So, in the name of your entertainment, here is what has often mysteriously grown legs and wandered away or decided to self destruct at inopportune times during our travels.

1 Amazon Kindle electronic book reader
1 Tilley hat
1 inflatable pillow
1 ipod
2 pairs of pants (growing legs to wander off is a particularly apt analogy for this item)
1 pair of underwear
5 watches (one stolen, 4 broken)
2 wallets including credits cards and IDs
1 fleece
2 pairs of shoes (worn down too far)
2 pairs of flip flops
2 pairs of insoles (also worn to bare threads)

But at least our luggage was never once lost in transit!

This picture was taken when we had to remove all of our stuff from our bags that got wet whilst we tried to get a full 4 hours of sleep in Buenos Aires.
