Everyone is giving such good tips on this thread. What a HUGE help!!!

Wendy, I really like your list. It will help keep me focused on what we really need to bring.

One question I have - no one ever seems to mention flip flops. Tom lives in them in the summer and I usually wear them around pools and just walking around in the summer. Do the Teva sandals take the place of those, or would we want a pair of flip flops too? I've never had Teva's but it seems like so many people wear them in hot climates. Marsha, I like your idea about having 2 pairs so you always have a dry pair.
