What To Bring On Your Vacation...
Well, its kinda boring out there right now, so I decided to start a new thread on things to bring to aruba with you that you might not think of....
blow up tubes( why rent, bring your own from Target 3.99) clothes line- although the hotel has one of those lines in the tub, it doens't hold 4 suits and they don't dry. We tie a line on our balconey Coffee-can't live without my dunks brewing in the room to wake me up. I bring the filters, creamora and sugar too... Telescopic fishing rod- gives my kids and nieces and nephews plenty of fun. The restaurant on the islands give them bait Extension cord- yes, sounds stupid, but most rooms are plug deficient Air Freshner- Bathrooms have no ventilation, and some rooms take on that damp smell. My kids say I over do it... Paper cups- yep, 3oz cups for the bathroom. Use them for pills, etc and not have to worry with the glass breaking etc. on the tile floor Small Tupperware box- sandwhich size to put snacks, cheese and crackers in Cooler- portable size, fill up with ice at the machines and carry your drinks to the beach or poolside Quaters- for the washing machine, at the airport for the luggage carts, vending machines.. Anyone else out there got any great ideas? cindyo

your list is good!
we have with us a power strip due to the lack of outlets (aa battery charger, cell phone charger, dvd player charger) bathroom air freshener= we bring a small yankee candle we also bring bounce dryer sheets, rub them on our bodies and it is good insect repellent and no sticky feel and yukky smell. i am foggy from allergies, that's all i can think of now. andrea Quote:

Lexi...They have machines in the hotel. End of coridor, eats quarters.....Bring a timer with you, poeple get mad and toss your stuff out. If you have a timer, you will know when its done and beable to pull it out yourself.
Have a great time, send some pics to the site pls ! Happy wedding day...you'll be in heaven ! cindyo

Nice! I picked up some good tips for this year. I think I will pack a few air freshener plug ins, pack a box of gallon or large zip locks for snacks or for holding ice in my colapsable cooler, a power strip is a good idea for all the chargers, a couple of inflatable rafts for the kids and I might even bring a telescopic fishing pole for behind the rest on ren island. I will be ordering my sun blocks today!
