Thanks for thinking of us Diser's, mvazul!
Subsciribing! Are you kidding me? Alphabatized? Alphabatized!!! You guys are amazing. In all the years I've been travelling it has never even occured to me to put my packing lists in alphabetical order. I LOVE it. Less than a month away & no packing lists in site so I am thrilled with this thread.
I sort my packing list accordingly, because I have an electronics bag, toiletry bags, food bags, etc. DS has one outfit in a gallon sized Ziploc bag...shorts, shirt, socks, underwear. No decisions, grab a bag and go!

Wait, you bring 4 laundry hampers and 21 ponchos? Really? What do you do with all of them? And why should pennies be earlier than 1982? I have a mini M&M case ready to go & the pennies aren't pre 1982. Oh my goodness you are making me nervous. Ack!

Some people like to use pre-1982 pennies because of the lack of zinc content. Apparently they don't "smear" when pressed. Don't know from experience, just have read that on the boards![]()
I don't mess with trying to reuse the ponchos. Generally, the Florida rain in summer is an afternoon deal, and doesn't revisit once it passes. So, we use the cheap throw away when you are done with it variety. They actually say reusable, and I did keep them around and reuse one day on our Spring Break trip but tossed them at the end of the day...the cost $0.67 each at my local sporting goods store. I think it's worth it for convenience and small size (they pack in my waist pack very well
).
I need to make this as easy on myself as possible. Presorted laundry will help me. Also, it wasn't a huge investment to get these, $1 in that section in TargetDH was sitting here with me reading and he said he had to put in his 2 cents.. He laughs because I take an extra *empty* large suitcase with us.. it holds all my shopping. lol

Love this thread!Thanks for thinking of us Diser's, mvazul!

Has anyone ever been there at Christmas time? I dont know whether to pack a couple of pair of shorts for everyone or just jeans
Considering where you are coming from, I think the little room taken by shorts will be worth it even if you don't end up wearing them. But I think you will.
