As you can see, Rick Steves is helping me get prepared for Germany and Austria.
"But that's the 2007 edition of Rick Steves' Germany & Austria!" you may prostest. No worries--I've unlocked the secret to time travel. I will be visiting Europe in the year 2007, which will allow me to pay 2007 rates and experience all the sights as they were before the Y2K8 bug hit.
OK, kidding over. I just don't see the point of buying the 2008 edition, which is bound to be quite similar. According to RickSteves.com, this will probably be the last year that Germany and Austria will be featured in the same book. There will also be a book focused solely on Vienna that will be published this spring, after I've already become an *expert* on Vienna.
On to packing... I am only bringing one suitcase, but I think I can manage that. Airlines usually only allow one carry-on and one checked bag into Vienna, and I do not wish to pay 50-75 euros to send another one. I'm just going to wash my clothes more often.
I have three Rick Steves brand packing cubes--very shick, as you can see. They're not completely full yet. I also have some airtight bags that promise I can bring up to three times the clothes I would have brought without them. We'll see about that.
