Dumb question: how many suitcases are you all packing? We have 8 days total. We were thinking one rolling carry-on for each of us, and then two large checked bags between us to share for overflow, to save on the cost of checking bags ($25 per bag each way). Is that enough? I guess we won't know until we are packing. I was just wondering what everyone else is doing. We have never flown together as a family- we drive everywhere, so what we pack is not even a consideration, we just pack whatever and throw it in the car. This time I feel like we really need to keep it in check. Also- are you bringing an empty bag for souvenirs on the way back? Jason wants to nest our two checked bags and only check the one (with the other inside) and then we'll have two checked bags on the way home. I can't imagine we'll fill a whole extra bag with just souvenirs.
Anyway, just rambling, and obsessing over this trip.
