In need of some packing advice...

Marley - LOL - Raul's insert comments could be exchanged with Markus's insert comments about my shoes.
(Particularly my collection of boots and dress shoes. I keep finding ones I like, but then realize the heels are too high, they're not practical or they aren't comfortable. I have a huge pile in the closet. )
I just might take you up on that offer though, Lets see how this packing goes.
Packing attempt #1 will happen this weekend.

RR – Thanks! Another vote for co-worker 1#

Gerrg123 – Hmmm….That’s an idea. Maybe bring one big check in suitcase and the carry-ons. I can pack all the “I CANT LIVE WITHOUT” essentials into the carry-ons (just in case my luggage gets lost). I’ll suck it up, pay the $30 for that one big suitcase and pray that it’s waiting for us at baggage claim.

I’m hoping at ten years from now, I’ll have enough 12 day vacations under my belt that this post asking for packing help will make me just laugh and shake my head. Right now though, it feels like a huge undertaking and this trip feels so monumental! Haha!

I guess every first is like that…

Thanks so much guys for all your help!

Thanks MoFromMonroe! I'm thinking this might be the way to go. One of the carry-ons could be a knapsack that could be easily thrown over the shoulders while rolling the big suitcase from hotel to hotel.
And it's actually more than 3 hotels this time...lol


Awww! Thanks so much Marley!
Can’t wait to *FINALLY* meet you!
