I refill at the end of every trip. We do this because I was so sick of getting to destinations and realizing we didn't have toothpaste... or contact lens solution... or a contact case... etc. I then have a separate toiletry bag where we throw the usual suspects-- Wagon Sr.'s electric razor, my glasses in their case, my night cream, my grooming stuff (tweezers, nail clippers, cuticle nippers), and my makeup bag. </p> <p>Otherwise it's just clothes, flip flops, shoes, clothes to sleep in (Wagon Sr. always forgets these!), phone chargers, camera and charger. Ever since smartphones we don't really need other entertainment.</p> <p>I also carry a very well-stocked purse (advil, pepto bismol, eyedrops, extra contacts, band aids, vaseline, makeup, brush, hair elastics, etc) so I know that I have those emergency things with me at all times, traveling or not! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/packing-for-vacation-what-are-your-travel-must-haves#post-188907 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 08:57:05 +0000 twodoghouse 188907@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sunscreen! Even in the winter, I swear my husband gets sunburned just from being outside. Also, phone, camera, moisturizer, cash (I don't always have cash in my every day life but I'm always afraid to be without cash while traveling...) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/packing-for-vacation-what-are-your-travel-must-haves#post-188903 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 08:51:30 +0000 Mrs. Bee 188903@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>depends where you're going. bug repellent!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/packing-for-vacation-what-are-your-travel-must-haves#post-188899 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 08:49:24 +0000 Minnie_Girl 188899@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Extra underwear. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/packing-for-vacation-what-are-your-travel-must-haves#post-188891 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 08:38:56 +0000 Alivoo01 188891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Apart from my phone, money/ID, and camera, I always bring bandaids and pain meds (headaches, muscle aches, etc.). We never fail to use them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/packing-for-vacation-what-are-your-travel-must-haves#post-188833 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 06:58:10 +0000 heffalump 188833@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always say as long as I have my meds I'm fine. Anything else can be bought when I get there if I forget it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/packing-for-vacation-what-are-your-travel-must-haves#post-188803 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 02:58:54 +0000 looch 188803@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Something to read, conditioner for my hair, tweezers for my eyebrows, glasses and sunglasses. I can get by without just about everything else, lol.</p> <p>I also always pack an adapter and a surge protector with multiple outlets...I read about that on one of the threads here, it's been a lifesaver! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/packing-for-vacation-what-are-your-travel-must-haves#post-188711 Wed, 13 Jun 2012 22:15:32 +0000 Mrs. Pen 188711@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>make-up - duh!!! hair dryer and flat iron :) CAMERA.

Any time I stay in a hotel (even somewhere cold) I bring a bathing suit so I can go in the hotel pool or jaccuzzi. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/packing-for-vacation-what-are-your-travel-must-haves#post-188690 Wed, 13 Jun 2012 21:38:47 +0000 Mrs. Blue 188690@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're heading out tomorrow, and I'm frantically throwing things in my suitcase. My must haves are my Kindle, my phone, a easy purse/carry on, shorts and shirts that mix &amp; match, one cute dress, and q-tips (I cannot live without them). </p> <p>ETA: Oh, and I always take my DSLR &amp; a little point and shoot camera.<br /> What are you're must haves? </p>
