One Week In Italy: Hand Luggage Lists

Holiday eve!

I think, think, think we are ready

I have packed and repacked our case

I have packed us each a carry on bag

I have one bag that is a suitcase extension

Though I will take it on to the plane

It is not filled with things needed for the journey

Only things that would not fit in the case

It is a gorgeous bag though

A denim Miss Sixty case

From 2001

I guess that makes it vintage now!

David’s rucksack is the same

Filled with his clothes

And necessities

And some snacks for us

This North Face rucksack is what we will use as our day bag in Italy

The four bags I am going to tell you about

Are the children’s
