To the late packers.....don't feel bad. For every vacation I pack the night before. I mean I need my stuff up until the day. Hair products, clothes, toilitries. I do it in about 30 minutes.
I am a planner/pre-packer/un-packer/re-packer....when I get to my room, I unpack and put everything in drawers or closet...nice and organized.
When I have traveled with family, I make "rules" like "put your stuff away," "no wet towels on the bed," "keep this room picked up,"...etc.
I have also traveled with friends who sometimes make me a little crazy....one lives out of a suitcase the entire trip...never puts anything into the dresser drawers...just digs through the suitcase...
One friend is really a challenge ...during our last trip, I went to her house the night before out 7 AM flight so we could take a one taxi to the airport in the morning. She hadn't even started packing! She had piles all over her house, and took some stuff from a pile, then put it in the suitcase, then went to another pile, and sometimes just put stuff from one pile into another pile. I was crazy by the time she finally did get everything packed. Then in our room, she NEVER put anything away - clothes got just hung over the back of a chair, food wrappers just left on the dresser. oy. I would have truly lost it if she wasn't my best friend and Disney traveling buddy...
This friend is also the one that was able to pack her entire mess back into her one suitcase for our return trip (I still can't figure that one out!)...one of us had to go to the gift shop and purchase a second suitcase to fit everything...(I swear, I didn't buy that much!!!)
HA HA HA
