I take off my jeans at the airport & change to shorts & never put them on again any of our 8 trips. It's HOT & HUMID Even while there in Feb. once during a cold snap I didn't need them. Sometimes I change into capris or beach dress in the evening but never long pants. Would unnecessarily take up room in the luggage. I remember our first trip 16 years ago we had 2 big suitcases packed with stuff we never wore. It seems like each time we come I pack less & less. Most of my time is spent in a bathing suit & cover up anyway. Pack light
