Excess luggage

Our group of 12 were so excited for this boat trip they packed everything but the kitchen sink. We had 12 board bags, 14 luggages, and all packed with the essentials. Here we are gearing up at our hotel for our next flight to Nusa Tengarra. I was wondering what kinds of excess luggage we had packed, but when we went to a remote village I saw the goods come out...

One of our highlights was visiting a remote village and sharing all kinds of goodies with the kids. Here Mihoko busted out her candies and the kids were stoked. They probably never had m and m's before or a snicker bar. They were so excited they started eating the wrapper instead of the candies. Another traveler brought a bunch of reading glasses and all the older villagers were amazed they could see much better. This is why we travel! Not just to broaden our minds but to bless those less fortunate. You would never believe how much you have if you never go somewhere like this.
