Travel Tips

The 24-Hour Carry-On Rule

Never trust an airline implicitly with your luggage. Always pack your carry-on or personal item under the assumption that your checked bag will be lost for the first 24 hours.

Always keep these essentials in your backpack or cabin bag:

  • All medications and electronics/chargers.
  • A fresh change of clothes (including underwear and socks).
  • Essential toiletries (toothbrush, deodorant, minimal makeup) under 100ml.
  • Important documents and a physical copy of your hotel reservation.

Where in the World is Jen this August?

🏰 August’s Grand Adventure: 🎢 Next Stop: The Happiest Place on Earth!There is nothing quite like experiencing Disneyland for the very first time—except, perhaps, getting to witness it through the eyes of your grandchildren. This August, we are taking our two oldest grandsons on their maiden voyage to the Happiest Place on Earth in California! The anticipation is already building. They are counting down the days until they can pilot the Millennium Falcon in a galaxy far, far away, and hang out with Woody and Buzz Lightyear. We can’t wait to trade the summer routine for Mickey ears, lightsabers, and pure wonder. Core memories, here we come!
