Leaving Saturday-what to pack?

[MamaLema]

Should we pack mostly shorts and tank-tops? Or pants and a light jacket? Also, do you think it will still be warm enough to go to the beach?

I don't want to overpack because we have 3 little ones and have to take a ton of stuff for them already.

I can't believe it's almost time - WOOOOOHOOOOOO!!!!!

Take a mix! That way you will be prepared for anything!

Or don't then you have an excuse to buy something!

Have A Great Time!

See you next week!

Tell Uncle Mickey we are almost there!

Take mostly shorts and t-shirts. We each had one pair of pants and sweatshirt and did not need them at all.

According to the weather forcast for Orlando, which I get in my inbox three times a day, the daytime highs this week are in the 30's with the lows being in the low 20's. I don't think you'll need a lot of warm clothes at all, just for the drive if you are driving. We go in two weeks and I'm not taking much warm clothes at all. It can get cold in November but I'm hoping it will be awesome weather.

Besides, you can always head over to the GAP, Old Navy and OshKosh outlets to pick up some clothes for the kids if you need some. They have great deals there!!

Have a super trip and tell all "my friends" that we'll be there soon!!

Here is what I got in my inbox this Wednesday Morning.

Yup-that's the long range forecast we saw on the Orlando news on Monday-take a pair of pants and a jacket but mostly t's and shorts.

Daytona Beach was really warm last week-had a great time. Kids swam for quite a while (found out the water was salty the hard way!.

Bring some bug spray ... they can be really bad at night

 

[cdnmickeylover]

I would take mostly shorts and t-shirts with one hoodie. Last Friday night it got really cool in Orlando although it had been quite hot all week -- low 90's with the humidity factored in. Didn't need anything other than shorts and t's til the Friday night.

Have fun.

Susan--Ontario,
Just wondering which weather website you're using to get your updates from? We are leaving in about a week and a half, and I'd like to start watching the weather as well. Don't want to overpack clothes so I have lots of room for souvenirs!

Thanks!

Hi Sammy,

You can go to http://www.theweathernetwork.com

and request email updates of the weather for particular cities. I have both my homes weather update three times a day. It's fun to compare them in the dead of winter. We leave in two weeks.

I guess we'll both be watching the weather forcast.

 

[sammy215]

Thanks!!!

10 more sleeps 'til we go to the airport! - Better yet - only 6 and a half more days of work!!!

 

[Susan--Ontario]

We have 13 or 14 more sleeps depending on when we leave, but the best part is only 8 and 1/2 more days of work.

YEEE HAAAAWWWW!!!!!

Look out Florida the Canadians are coming!!!

 

[tiggerwannabe]

It's 91 in FL today!

DH is there now-it's hot. Night temp is hovering around 80---
I would take a jacket/pants-but pack primarily shorts & tanks!
