That's awesome! I got a pack of 10, they lay flat so they will be in the bottom of the suitcase.....figured it would be a fun thing for us to do, maybe one night from Catcha on the cliffs.....should be a really cool sight!

Clarity and the rest....I don't see how yall can do the carryons. I guess I am high maintenance because I need variety, I have one very large and one large checked suitcase, a carryon and a personal bag. I bring everything that I have and use at home.

I'm with you Luvs....never have been able to do that, sounds great, but with me, it's just not going to happen LOL
I mean I am embarrased by what I have taken on 3 day trips to places before LOL

Thanks S-G, Sweetsue, Luvsdaisland, Robin for your advice!

Juli – love the Packing cubes! Thanks for the heads up on that. I didn’t even know those existed. So if I vacuum pack all my clothes and put them in packing cubes, I could probably pull off two carry-ons.

Orchid – I agree, I also don’t mind handwashing but it would suck having to lug clothing to a Laundromat halfway through my trip because I’m out of clean clothes – or having to pay the hotel to do it for me!

Thanks Brasi – yeah, I’m not a fan of the fees. $60 can go a LONG way! that’s a bunch of Redstripes AND a Lobster Thermidore!! (But Unfortunately Lobster will be out of season when we get there and Rob refused to hide one in his freezer for me. Phft…)

Patty – You crack me up! I’m looking forward to seeing your judging swimsuit!!

Thanks everyone! Soon come!

Thanks everyone! Soon come!

This Patty Sather THE JUDGE situation has the entire pool of competitors heading back to the drawing board in consideration of an appropriate winning strategy. I'm considering some sort of Red Bull Flugtag like human winged manatee get up... http://www.redbullflugtagusa.com/

[marley9808]

Ha!!! I have been to Flugtag in Tampa......what a fun time!


P.S. Good thing Raul (Ninja) isn't judging.....he is scared of manatees! LMAO

[Guirigay]

Won't be able to fit it in my carry on though!
