Nope....I havent even pulled the suitcase down yet.
But then again, I am in Florida and it is in the upper 80s and low 90s so I am currently wearing what I will be wearing there, so I can't pack yet anyways! Hahahahahaha
Sweetie Pie plans on running a test pack this weekend. We know we're taking fewer clothes but we also want to take the "good" camera, maybe a mosquito net for the doghouse and I need to take my flop costume or recreate it down there... We'll unpack after the test pack though because I hate leaving the big flippers all torqued up longer than they need to be...
Packed and ready to roll. :D
Jim – Donna & Spottycatz – woohoo!!!
I'm almost entirely packed, I have not yet attempted to CLOSE these 2 carry-on suitcases yet because I have a few more things I still need to put in there...:confused:
It's gonna be a tight squeeze, I may need to employ the ziplock bag method... I have a box of them on standby.
I figure I can make Markus stand on the suitcases, while I use all my strength to pull the zipper across.
Yeah, it'll be fine...
Almost there. lol:o
Marley - You haven't pulled the suitcase down yet??
Well, you live in the sunshine state close to a gorgeous beach and only a one hour flight away from Jamaica. (lucky!!)
That would be like me packing a week and a half in advance to fly to San diego. :D
Giurigay – Markus and I are having the “Should we bring the GOOD camera?” debate right now
Followed by: “Then Where are we going to FIT the good camera?”
NO, don't tell me this! Suitcases out, everything laid out, kinda. Weekend, get ready for Easter Dinner, egg hunt, grandkids (why did I clean Saturday), Re-clean my house after Easter (7grandkids) why did I have to do the squirt gun fight? Work all week, Monday, mow yard, Tuesday, facial, Wednesday, Mani & Pedi, Thursday, Hair appt., Friday, Bank, Saturday leave house for airport at 3:45AM. I will pack Tuesday night, can't mess up my Mani... Done! I leave in 5 days............
Jim /Donna - there is so much love in every photo of you too.....I admire this so much and aspire for this in my life (soon lol).
Started packing but realized its just not gonna fit in one giant and one small suitcase so picking up my sister's giant suitcase tomorrow so I can go with two giant ck'd bags at the weight limit (hopefully). Stuffed duffle carryon with laptop and purse (really a beach bag to more "stuff" lol). Yikes....but washing clothes today and stacking things for final packing.
