Pom-pom Fiasco

Last night we made pom-pom's for our luggage in red, white, black and gold (University of Maryland colors). We will attach them to our bags so in the airport we will be able to easily spot them (We had blue and gold for our high school before and they worked perfectly). There were bits of yarn and fuzz everywhere though!!

We both packed one of our two pieces of luggage. In them are school materials, toiletries, first aid items, snacks, laundry materials, and some odds and ends. In the other rolling luggage we will pack clothes, shoes, journals, blanket and mogu pillow. The carry-ons will contain some essentials for our day in Nassau.

We relaxed at the pool this afternoon and the UV index is high today so it didn't take long to feel the effects. Neither of us can wait to be on the Explorer and our minds seem to be a circus of thoughts. For now, here is the rest of the packing ABC style...

V - vacuum sealed packing bags (We heard these work fantastic for clothes, but we'll let you know as soon as we have used them ourselves).

W - water camera (If you plan on spending anytime in the water, snorkeling or scuba diving, you should bring at least one. We have always had amazing photos from underwater adventures in the Caribbean).

X - x-tra pens (okay, so a bit of a stretch on the alphabet...but we heard they can be used in markets or trade. You can even donate them).

Y - yourself (hehe! Just don't forget your passport, yellow book, ID and anything else).

Zzzzzz...Zzzzzzz

Wake up! Are we there yet?
