Hey all:
I saw someone post on here about a new packing thing - I only saw one post (people thought it was an ad and may have been) - and now I can't find it. But anyway....
I checked it out and ordered one and I just got it and test packed in it. My son and I are going to Spain in March and because he just has to go to Gibraltar (grrr...) we have 1 night, 2 nights, 2 nights stay, and I thought this thing that you can take out of the bag and hang up would be much easier for such short stays and so many packing/unpackings. I'm guessing I can rearrange and make one of the holes for dirty clothes when it comes to that.
It's called the Pack at thepackgear.com. It came really quickly, and this is what I could fit in it (probably could get more, it's not full at all):
skirt, shorts, 2 capris, 2 hoodies, 5 short sleeve shirts, 2 scarfs, hat, nightgown, bathing suit, socks, undies, bras. (rolled)
It fits nicely in my RS rolling carry on with side room for sandals and toiletry bag. And the bag closes very easily, probably could lay my jacket on top without bulging the bag at all. I need to add (hopefully minimal) toiletries, but as it is about 16 pounds total.
I'll report back in April after I test it in the real world! Last trip I did the method where you lay all the clothes and fold them into each other and I liked that too, but hard to find just one thing if the stops are short. I did packing cubes the trip before that and they were ok, but I like that this one just hangs up. And it may keep me from overpacking.
I wish I could add my pictures! I am pretty psyched about it. Packing geek.
