It's Hard To Pack For 16 Days

I'm hoping we'll be able to find a laundry or send stuff out at the hotel because packing winter clothes (sweaters, tights, boots, etc.) in a single suitcase for under 50 lbs (if it weighs more, you have to pay extra) is no picnic.

It kinda reminds me of wedding invitations.  You know, if you invite cousin Sue, then you have to invite cousin Bob.  If I take my favorite big brown sweater, then I have to take my brown hiking boots.  In case we go out to a nice restaurant, I should take those nice black pants I bought this summer, but then I have to take a pair of dressier (heeled) shoes.  And so it goes.

Then there's the parade of toiletries and the ziplock bags of "but I might need this just in case."  I know we can buy additional/whatever we need in London, but it's soooo expensive over there.

I also know us.  On no fewer than four of our many trips, we have actually purchased an additional bag or suitcase to fill with all of our souvenirs to bring back home.

I said it before, and I'll say it again...we're gonna need a bigger bag!
