As a frequent traveler one of my pet peeves is that the clocks in hotel rooms are all different and often don't work. I stumbled on LL Bean's Nightfinder II travel alarm which is now on my must pack list. It is simple to use, takes up very little space, and even includes constant alarm and temperature displays. If your room feels too hot or too cold, this little gem will tell you for sure. PS. GREAT blog.

But DO pack lollipops (best if they are individually wrapped) because there's always 1 or 2 young child in the plane who's ears pop at some point while he/she is restless and starts whinning or crying. These lollipops are great at calming them down, and popping their ears!Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03236816461601393841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4631269115395079689.post-9029162831723791612008-04-18T15:20:00.000-07:002008-04-18T15:20:00.000-07:00Jonathan had a great tip, and mine is along the sa...Jonathan had a great tip, and mine is along the same lines - I always bring tons of ziplock baggies with me, of varying sizes. Camera or no, they're just smart! As a girl with lots of "bathroom" products too, it's a great way to split up my shower-specific things into one baggie, and sink-specific things into another so that I can quickly and easily get out of other people's way when sharing a bathroom!Trudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02719492306614576123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4631269115395079689.post-56723356779392135692008-04-18T14:07:00.000-07:002008-04-18T14:07:00.000-07:00When I pack clothes I fold 2 or 3 pairs of pants o...When I pack clothes I fold 2 or 3 pairs of pants or shirts at the same time.

You will thank yourself when you have to take them out individually to run them through the x-ray and they bump against each other while on the conveyor belt. I do this with all of the contents of my pockets as well, then 'reload' once I'm seated at the gate. It will save you time and embarrassment in the security line while others fumble with their gear.Jontonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05400444195897990748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4631269115395079689.post-60425599230626370232008-04-15T08:17:00.000-07:002008-04-15T08:17:00.000-07:00What a great idea!
