And I had a whole pocketful of rubber bands.
And Gordo had a whole pocketful of rubber bands.
We found that was the only way to handle the food.
After we ate a rehydratable package or even a few
solid packages that we opened.
We always resealed
them again wi th tape and rolled them up as small as
we could get them and used the tape to wrap them
with for stowage.
To keep them very small and compact.
Did you get all this stuff where you originally
planned to put it?
I have a copy of our reentry stowage here which
shows what varied from the way it was.
Now the
big items, there was only one big item that didn't
go .
There were only two i terns that didn't get
stowed in the place that it was called for that I
remember right now.
The S-1 camera went over in
the right food box rather than the left food box
and the urine device we kept out until the last
minute and we restowed it in its original stowage
place which was in Gordo's left box.
And then there were two partial bags of defecation
bags and an empty bag and one bag full of about a
half of a meal , paper and wrappings from one meal
