My Itchy Travel Feet | The Baby Boomer's Guide To Travel

Packing is a popular topic

by Donna Hull on 2008/12/02

Believe me, packing for a South African safari plus a 13-day cruise has been a challenge. Did I follow the packing advice I’ve blogged about at My Itchy Travel Feet? Well, most of it.

For sure, I took the One-sole shoes that I blogged about. And, I’ve checked the carry-on regulations for International travel as well as those specific to South Africa and Brazil, my two destinations. Next time, I’ll be ordering a few of the products I highlighted when I wrote about my toiletry carry-on dilemma. And, even after writing about ways to solve the over-packing syndrome, I’m still guilty.

Do you have packing advice for baby boomers like me who overpack? Post a comment. I really want to change my ways.

    Great idea, Julie. I've done that before, especially with tennis shoes. They might have lost their oomph for working out or playing tennis but they're still wearable for someone who doesn't have any shoes. Plus leaving them behind really lightens the load in my luggage.
  • I take older clothes whose next step is the Goodwill anyhow. Then as I wear them, I leave them behind to make room in my luggage for gifts and other things I just had to buy.
