Difficulties of packing….

Updated On:

So for the heck of it, I thought I’d get out my carry-on bags and see how much I can fit into them.  To get an idea for just how much they can hold.  As I said in a previous posting, I will be traveling on both my summer trips (Disney and Croatia) with just carry-on bags.

 

Holy cow!  This is going to be harder than I thought.  Big time.  I did mention that I tend to be an over-packer.  I usually take a big full size suitcase on a week’s trip.  But that is not an option this time around.  And the Croatia trip is for about a week and a half.  A week and a half in just a carry on bag.  Perhaps I’ll have to wear my pretty platform sandals on the plane so that I don’t need room for them in my bag…. I really don’t see what other option I have.  That way I can get my favorite brown Reef flip flops easily into the carry on.  Or perhaps I should wear several layers of tank tops on the plane, as one of my good friends suggested.  Hmm…. that could work actually.  (Tank top layering is a trendy thing right now…)

 

I will let you know how it goes when we get closer, but it WILL be a challenge.  Rest assured, I’ll be showing off my fun cute outfits from both trips here on my blog and on FB.  (Plus, I plan to do my usual Disney Trip Report on the Disboards.)
