Well everyone who helped me decide to go with husband and son for 2 weeks with 3 days notice to plan -- thanks! It's all come together, and it's all in my living room! And so far I have filled 3 big bags to the 50$ limit. This is first year we are on airlines (united by us air) that is charging for bags -- it's $75 per bag based on 3 bag check-ins each. So we're up to $225 in bag fees and I've not packed everything. Ladies help me out, is this excessive for 15 days?
8 swimsuits
4 cover ups
3 skirts/3 tanks/t-shirts
5 things to wear in evening outside of room
4 things to wear lounging around room
3 pairs flip flops
1 pair sandals
No this is not excessive -- it's the snacks and the toiletries that's doing me in. Doesn't everyone need 6 bottles of suntan lotion/screen in varying strengths from 30 spf to tropical oils? And 3 bottles of shower gels? And 5 bottles of different moisturizers? Then we've got the jiffy pop, the chocolate (5 pounds at least, but hey, we're going to be there on Valentines Day), the pb&J, the nuts, the coffee and tea, the Pringles, paper towels. Well I'm beginning to see the problem. I think the only thing I didn't bring was the speakers and the candles. And the gifts for kids. My journal from previous year's says I checked 6 bags. Oy I'm in trouble.
