Ok I needed to read this!!! Going to my parents’ for 5 days before my brother’s wedding in Dallas - they live on a lake, and I’m desperately trying to pack just a carry on for me and the baby 🫠🫠 Schipol Airport has been having checked bag issues so I don’t want to risk it!! Your packing process and what you wish you’d done post trip is going to be my guiding light!!!
