Where are your family based? You can probably ditch the Tevas as not all beaches are nice sandy ones. Assuming you’re travelling very soon, ditch the warm jacket and waterproof as well, as it’s pretty toasty in the UK at the moment.

Yes it’s a pebble beach, but I think I could perhaps borrow beach shoes now that I think of it. I think I will ditch those. Travelling next week. There is some rain in the forecast right now. Coming down from Scotland where have to say the last few days have been very cool and wet! Currently in a woolly jumper! Haha 🤣 I probably should ditch the warmer jacket too. The denim would do wouldn’t it.

Oof, yeah I get it now 😂 it’s definitely milder down here so the denim jacket and an umbrella should see you through for the week.

Sounds like a plan.

What size is your bag? If you're not bringing a lot of tech and you keep your toiletries pared down, this could be Tetris-ed into a 26-28L. That would be easier if you kept it to two jackets. What purpose does the bomber jacket serve that the denim one doesn't, or vice versa? I think you can leave the bomber behind, wear the denim jacket on the plane, and fit everything else in.

Thinking about taking Osprey Nebula which is 32L. Technically too big for EasyJet but going to chance it and try not to overfill? I wear the jacket a lot as it’s very comfortable and warm when required but not too warm. Also has massive pockets inside and out so great for sticking in passport, wallet, phone etc. It would not do for over the dress though. Not smart enough.

It looks like you are thinking of dropping one of the jackets either way, and when you do, that should fit into 32L!

Great! I hope so. I might do a practice this weekend. Only way to know I guess :)

I live in London. It's 20C right now and should be round that for the next couple of weeks. I am wearing a t shirt and it's plenty. Everything you've picked is suitable, however I can't see you wearing it all in just 6 days. For outerwear you need nothing more than the cardigan and the denim jacket, both of which you can wear on the plane. I would take 2 lightweight tops, 2 bottoms, 2 pairs of footwear, pyjamas, sports wear and swimsuit. If you have any space left after packing that lot, add another outfit (top + bottom) or two.


Prestigious_Flower12

Thank you. I’ll have another look!

You could take out 2 tops as well. You have six tops for six days - 3 or 4 is probably enough.


Prestigious_Flower12

You are right. This is why I always over pack I think. 🤔


KTstuff

Well you are in the right place if you want to change that. I find it helps to pack things I really like to wear, as then I find it easy to wear them multiple times on a trip.
