My trip is rapidly approaching! I will be in Lourdes and Amsterdam, as well as a week long Norwegian Fjords cruise. I will try and check the weather before I leave, but it seems like Lourdes could be warm, but often the high is the low 70's, with the low in the high 60"s. Amsterdam is slightly lower. They both have 10-12 days of rain. The Norwegian ports will be colder, with highs in the low 60's, but we will primarily be on low key bus based excursions.
My bag is a Rick Steves backpack, which I am shipping through. I have a small tote as a carryon (16x12x6).
3 pairs pants (jeggings, navy ponte knit and navy slacks
6 tees (2 patterned, 4 solid)
3 dressier tunic tops/blouses
3 dresses (poly/spandex blends): one is for a swim coverup, 1 for sleepwear and one for "gala" nights.
1 swimsuit
2 "dressy" shawls (one is black sparkly and the other lacey wine color). To dress up "gala" night dress
1 Eddie Bauer windbreaker/rain jacket
1 Chico's lightweight navy jacket
1 navy cardigan
1 pashmina (to wear as scarf, blanket on plane, etc)
1 pair magic gloves, 1 lightweight wicking gaiter
6 pairs underwear
2 bras
2 undershirts/camisoles
1 pair nude tights
4 pairs socks
2 pairs "knee highs"
1 pair Keen Mary Janes
1 pair skechers
1 pair black flat embellished sandals
MISC:
iPad mini
iPhone
tech kit (cords, etc)
"emergency" kit
small jewelry bag
Coach packable tote
deck of cards
Left, Right, Center game
spare pair of glasses
toiletries in small hanging bag
As of right now, my backpack is about 16 pounds (including the backpack), but I'm sure I've forgotten a few things. My carryon is about 7 pounds
I have an eBags Piazza bag (1st generation), but I'm not sure I want to take it. I'm searching for a crossbody I like better.
I'd appreciate any feedback.
