Never Struggle To Get Out Of The Car Again…</a>
============================================================
Clothing
1. Coordinate your clothes around one or two basic
colors. This cuts down on the number of shoes and
accessories you have to bring.
2. Take as few clothes as possible. Plan on launder-
ing. One person suggested one week’s worth of clothes.
I take fewer unless they are my washable silks.
3. Wear and carry washable silk clothing whenever
possible. It is as warm as and as cool as cotton.
It dries overnight and 10-15 pieces take no more
room than two pair jeans. There are some other
manmade fabrics that travel as well if not better,
but they cost quite a bit more.
4. Plastic rain coat can double as a bathrobe or
windbreaker.
5. Take older clothes that can be discarded along the
way. Great for growing children. Many places, the local
people are pleased to get these castoffs. There are
travelers who take nothing but old clothes so they have
that much more room for bringing souvenirs home.
6. Jeans - I never take them as they take so long to
dry. If both the time and money for laundering are
concerns, take lighter weight pants.

12″ PANORAMIC REARVIEW MIRROR
Eliminate Blind Spots…
Retail Price: $19.99

Seeing is believing. Reduce blind spots and get a wider angle
of vision than a flat rearview mirror with this cool wide angle
mirror. It has a slide that adjusts to all standard car, truck,
SUV, and van mirrors. The flat glass surface reduces overlap
vision, distortion, and reduces headlight glare. It adjusts as
easily as a regular car mirror and won’t get in the way of your
visor.
FEATURES:
- Fits over any existing mirror
- Distortion-Free Glass
- Ideal for all vehicles
- Eliminates Blind Spots!
You’ll love the increased visibility. To get more info or
order one or two, visit:

Flight
1. An item that’s invaluable when making long, night
flights is an inflatable neck cushion (pillow). It
takes practically no room when collapsed, but makes
it so much easier to sleep. I also carry an eye shade
and ear plugs for sleeping.
2. When waiting in line or sitting in the airport (or
anywhere else, for that matter), always have the
strap(s) to your carryon luggage wrapped around an arm
or a leg. Then they won’t disappear without your knowl-
edge. I carry this suggestion to the extreme if I am in
a questionable area. I have even straddled my large bags
when I felt it necessary. Or at least have them touching
my leg so I would know if they were moved.
3. When you reach your seat on boarding a plane, MOVE
OUT OF THE AISLE immediately. From there you can stow
your bag in the overhead bin. If not, wait until the
aisle clears.
