To Pack Or Not To Pack

I'll be traveling in a few days and am busy with packing. Am not sure if I should bring the camera tripod. I wouldn't worry much about it if a friend did not postpone his trip with us. For some health reasons though, he had to cancel and now, I have this problem. Am quite sure that we'll be having some night shots. Probably, some firework shots too but my baggage is already heavy. The tripod is not lightweight. If only I have someone who could bring the tripod for me hehehe! For now, I haven't decided yet if I should pack or not to pack the camera tripod. I'll sleep on it for now.
