I will be leaving early tomorrow to Calcutta. From there, 3 of us will be going to Siliguri and then hopefully Bhutan. Why ‘hopefully?’ Because we haven’t booked any rooms or made any arrangements as such. Only once we get there we’ll know for ourselves what is possible and what isn’t.

At the moment, I have only a few concerns in mind:

1) Will 2 gigs of memory be sufficient? I shoot RAW  90% of the times, and each RAW file is around 8 - 9mb.  I get around 100 shots each with my 1 gig Lexar  and Sandisk cards. That makes it approximately 200  shots. Sufficient?

2) Touchwood, touchwood, touchwood, touchwood….I don’t want to return home lighter!

3) To take the tripod or not to take the tripod. I guess I’ll take it. Especially useful if I do go to Darjeeling.

4) What if I find my 18-5mm EFS lens lacking? What if I feel like kicking myself for not buying that 50mm f/1.8?

And I just realized that Ozh’s plugin don’t work for Opera. I am begining to dislike Opera. It needs to get back with the rest of the herd. And no, I don’t mean IE.
