Packing for Ireland?
Long time, no post!
Work has been 8 shades of crazy with little to no room for fun! Booo!
Anywho, I'm getting ready to pack for Ireland/Scotland. We're going for two weeks with the ILs. I'm so excited you could give me a pair of underpants, one change of clothes, and tell me I'm sleeping in a car the whole time and I'd say, "Awesome! See you there!"
I'm not a jet setter, and I don't get out much. Aside from the basic toiletries, rain proof jacket, good shoes and such, what do/would you bring for a 2 week, mostly B&B staying, lots of walking, driving from town to town kind of trip in Ireland/Scotland?
My ultimate goal is to not pack the kitchen sink and remain as light as possible in the lugging stuff department.
TIA!
Re: Packing for Ireland?
Yup, LAYERS!!
Also, an electric converter, if you can find one. My camera battery ran out on about day 5, and I couldn't plug it in anywhere.
Ipod (I can't do long travel without it!) and my cell phone. I got international calling when I went to Paris but more importantly I used the alarm on my cell phone while I was there.
Extra memory for your camera...when my parents when to Ireland and Scotland they took thousands of pics.
I loved Ireland! I'm going again in July. PPs are right: layers, extra batteries, electric socket converters. Also, I'd bring a second set of sneakers, in case one pair gets wet from the constant rain. You may want to bring a pair of two of long thermal underwear to wear under jeans. It was freezing over there in May when I was there last.
Also, I had a sort of flat fanny pack thing that I wore inside of my shirt that held my passport and some extra cash, just in case. When going from B&B to B&B, I was always worried I'd lose it somehow. I think I got it at WalMart or Bed Bath and Beyond. It was comfortable, and just knowing my stuff was safe made me enjoy the trip more.
Have a great trip!
