I think that is it
A lot of stuff we are taking with us on the plane
With our suitcase we will check in
Edie’s carseat and
Our off roader buggy
We have thought a lot about what to do about a buggy
We have decided to take our big one
As Edie often sleeps in it during the day
It is great for taking lots of stuff out and about
And Bea can have a rest in it too
Because we are taking a car seat anyway
It will hopefully not add too much time and effort at the airport
So tomorrow
I will throw all this lot in our case
Is there anything obvious I have forgotten?
Do please give me a shout if there is!
sun hats
Not sure I’ve read these on your list. Apologies if they’re on there somewhere.

First aid kit: bite cream, plasters etc etc
Something for: stomach upsets – adults and children; adult headaches
After sun cream, just in case
