The long road to Melbourne for speaking at a variety of events in Australia and New Zealand begins today with 20 hours worth of plane rides and 26 hours of travel. What do you bring to keep yourself entertained on the plane for that long? This is what I packed:

Season 4 for the TV Show 24

Curb Your Enthusiasm: Season 1

Good Night Good Luck

Derailed

Capote

4 Books (2 novels, 2 business)

The audio edition of my book (which I have not yet listened all the way through)

500 Songs on my iPod

Lots of Batteries

Ambien

I will post again on the other side of the world.
