Keep toiletries that you currently use in small
ready-to-go containers. All those
free samples that haven’t been used yet probably
won’t be used on your trip either, so toss them.
Call ahead to find out if your hotel room is
equipped with a blow dryer, iron, etc...to avoid
carrying extras.
When traveling with small children bring clothing
for a variety of weather conditions and bring their
favorite foods that might not be readily available in
the area where you will be.
And most importantly, don't forget to have
fun!
