What do you always forget to pack?

[zigfam4]

I'll be packing tomorrow and would like to know what everyone else forgets to pack. I know I'm bound to forget SOMETHING!!

Believe it or not I ALWAYS forget sunscreen. You would think that would be the one thing a person would remember if they are going to Florida.

As an aside, HAVE FUN! You will love it!

Underwear for me !! I pack for my two youngest and myself and can't seem to remember to put the underwear I got out for myself into the suitcase. It is there on the bed when I get home but that doesn't help me. Make sure all of your clothes get into the suitcase too.

Last time I forgot my fanny pack.. how, I have no idea... ugghh, surely missed it.

I remember to pack the sunscreen but somehow lose it in the airport by forgetting it in my carry-on! Sadly, more than once ...

I lost my absolutely-must-have lip balm the first morning in MK and went to three gift shops before finding some at Pooh Corner. Ask at the counter, they have lotsa meds and other necessities we all forget.

When I travel, I try to make a game out of "What will I forget?" I always forget something, so when I figure it out, it's just part of the game, not a tragedy. For most travel (foreign or camping excepted), if you remember your family, your documents (ID, plane and park tix), anything prescription, and a good credit card, anything else is just inconvenient, not fatal!

Have fun and don't stress too much!

I always make a list well in advance so I can add things as I think about it.

But....I just thought that most people would probably forget to pack "Just in case meds" ie..Tylenol, Pepto, cold or allergy med, Neosporin, band-aids, etc... You never know what you might need as far as meds.

Also maybe an extra pair of tennis shoes since you will be walking a lot.

I ALWAYS forget PJ's for some reason, and end up sleeping in one of DH's T-shirts.

My camera charger. It's the kind that plugs right into the outlet and I've managed to forget it the last 2 trips. My dad had to go to our house and FedEx the charger to our resort. Now he asks before I get in the car to the airport if I have it.

I always seem to forget my razor, not a big deal I just buy some disposable ones. This year I will not forget it as I purchased a new one and it is already packed.

Extra contact lenses and/or a copy of your prescription. Or backup glasses.

Both my husband and myself have lost contacts at Disney World.

No matter where I go I forget my hairbrush. DH hates going in search of a gift shop with bed head.

Sunglasses! It's a little ridiculous now how many pairs of sunglasses I have with Walt Disney World in the corner of the lens!

I always forget extra sunscreen. One bottle never seemed to be enough for a week stay with water park days.

Stroller hooks- every year I think to myself...man I wish I had those darn things!!!

Extra batteries for hand held fans or whatever.
