All Aboard! The Great Land and Sea Getaway - May 2009 PTR

[leamom2princesses]

That would drive me nuts. I have a hard enough time packing one time around let alone multiple times.

I'm a last minute packer also. I make my list months in advance because I have been editing the same list for three years. I just don't attempt to cross anything off and put it in a suitcase usually until hours before we leave. I'm such a procrastinator when it comes to that

Maybe I should be like Rosie and start earlier. I might get a little more sleep the night before and not look like a zombie our first day at the world

My problem is that we usually only take two suitcases between the four of us and I am an overpacker so I have a hard time limiting my stuff, especially hard to do at the last minute. It shouldn't be as big a problem this time around though as I will have a whole suitcase to myself but then again I will also be packing for two weeks vs our usual one week vacations.

Those pictures DO look heavenly!

We leave in two weeks and I have yet to start packing. But, I do have a box filled with items I don't want to forget - does that count??

I hear ya on the limiting what you bring. I could never do two weeks in one suitcase I better stick to a week long vacation and southwest because I definitely need two. Good luck on getting everything in one bag

In the grand tradition of the Dis I am thinking of taking along some flat friends on the trip. Since Alek and Erich will be staying home I thought it would be fun to bring flat versions of them and have them do funny things throughout the vacation. I have soooo many pictures of them to choose from though, the one I think I will definitely use for Alek for the cruise portion is this one:

wow Lessa, just wow.

 

[Lifelong_Dreamer]

wow Lessa, just wow.

Is that a funny wow or an "I can't believe he is dressed like that" wow?

 

[Loafmastermom]

That was such a great TR!

Isn't it? I thought it would be perfect to carry around on the cruise and especially on the excursions for photo ops. I'll have to find a different one to use while in WDW though.

Hi Lessa,

All caught up now - congrats on getting the excursions. The photos look beautiful!

As for the packing - well this last trip I was packed 8 weeks before we went! Not deliberately of course!

And I'm an expert at packing for 2 weeks in 1 suitcase! Any advice - you know where I am!

As for Alek's photo - I'm speechless!!!!
