I came easily pack in a carry-on bag with no problem for two weeks in Europe in the winter but summer….apparently not.
I have been invited with late notice to watch the finale of the Tour de France in Paris . Obviously, I said yes. traded in some frequent flyer miles for the flight, I booked the hotel that has air-conditioning and now I have to figure out what to take (by the way Delta has a pretty good sale going on right now on business class to Europe. It cost less miles to buy business class from Atlanta than it would have to go coach.)
I currently have two dresses, two skirts, two pairs of pants, three long sleeve linen shirts, four or five assorted short sleeve shirts, one short sleeve sweater, and 2 long sleeve sweaters and on my guest bed for consideration. I mean it’s a five night trip.😂
Yes, I will narrow this down, but I just wondered if anybody else has ever found this to be true. The reason I’m thinking this is so hard is because it’s such a short trip doing laundry is just really not feasible and France is having incredible heat this summer. .
I don’t leave until next week so I won’t be packing until next weekend but I always like to get everything out and start making sure that I don’t need to replace anything, sew on any buttons etc. and apparently I thought I should get out most of my closet.
So here’s what I think I should narrow it down to and I’ll welcome suggestions
1 dress
1 skirt
1 pants
1 long sleeve linen blouse ( I plan to wear this both as a shirt and as a jacket over other tops and the dress.)
3 tops ( at least one of which has to be of a tech material that will quick dry overnight because it’s hot in Europe right now I don’t know if tops can be worn more than once without laundry)
