Whether you’re a seasoned camper or a newbie, our comprehensive checklist can help you create your own packing list or remind you of those often forgotten items.

The Night Before:

As the excitement builds for your upcoming adventure, it’s time to start packing. Here’s what we make sure to include:

– Books for Us: Entertainment for downtime.
– Clothes and Shoes for Us: Enough for the trip, including bathers for those refreshing swims.
– Layla’s Essentials: Diapers, wipes, toys, a ball, books, and a change of clothes for the little one.
– Tania’s Small Backpack: Always ready with her personal essentials.
– Ronny’s Layla Hiking Backpack: Packed and prepared for any outdoor exploration.
– Guitar: Because campfires and music go hand in hand.
– Layla’s Bike: Ensuring she has a fun time exploring.
– Tupperware: For convenient food storage.
– Alcohol: Because a toast to adventure is a must!

The Morning Of:

As the sun rises on the day of departure, it’s time to finish up your packing:

– Layla’s Sleeping Essentials: Blanket, favourite stuffed animal, or whatever ensures her a good night’s sleep.
– Beauty Bag: Don’t forget the essentials – moisturizer, sunscreen, toothbrushes and paste, a few makeup items, tweezers, and nail scissors.
– Layla’s Food from the Fridge: Ensuring her favourite snacks are ready to go.
– Water Bottles x3: Staying hydrated is key.

Last-Minute Shop Run:

Before hitting the road, make sure you’ve covered all your bases with a quick shop for any missing essentials:

– Alcohol: Just in case you need a celebratory sip.
– Coffee: Because mornings just aren’t the same without it.
– Groceries: Muesli, mayo, tomatoes, cheese, bread, eggs, baked beans, tuna, refried beans, corn, chips, chocolate/sweets, corn chips, sour cream, avocado, peanut butter, butter, jam, milk, small veggie juices, tofu, garlic, yogurt, bean noodles, nuts, honey, tea, banana rusks, and Goji berries for Layla.
