You have apparently never seen th' Penguin's packing job on the '76, albo....ain't got much spare room for non-essentials! Taking a 2-3 week trip in a Shark with the better half requires judicious consideration of what you really have to have!
It would be kewl to see some video of the trip, tho, wouldn't it? Starting from the garage, all the way to the parking lot! Shots of the car cruizin across the water on a transport ship....mmmmmmmm.

LOL Just delete the 5 xtra pairs of shoes, hair dryer, curlers, make-up, you know , non-essentials.  BUT do not forget the tool box. We may be in the middle of a hair-pin turn somewhere and need a set of box end wrenches.

Mama says we can put the overflow on the luggage rack.......so I can un/re-strap it every freekin time I need fuel...
It's gonna be interesting, fer sher. The longest trip we've ever been on in the '74 was an overnighter with the NCRS....it was cramped then! 
(I give Mama a hard time, but I does lurv her!HugHeart)
Don't matter....we'll get there and back, one way er nuther. Are we there yet?

The note books are so small now and the cams are the size of a D cell battery. For sure some one would have interest.
