A Packing Checklist For Your Summer Vacation
Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010While going on a summer vacation is fun, packing for it is not.
There’s the rushing around, getting things into bags and fitting it all in the car. Then there’s the worry that you’ll forget something important. It’s no wonder ‘What should we bring?‘ is the biggest question we get asked.
One way to ease the stress of packing is to have a checklist. Then on the actually packing day, all you have to do is check off each item. No need to make any decisions or rely on your memory.
To get you started, we polled our staff & used our decades in the business to provide you with a list of what you might need to bring on your Blue Mountain summer vacation.
Clothing
Clothing can be a challenge when you’re packing for more than one person. Print off a copy of the clothing list for each member of the family and have them gather together their own clothes. If you don’t trust them, you can double check, but it will save you having to hunt for yourself.
- Underwear, socks and bras – enough for each day unless you plan to do laundry
- Shoes – sandals, flip flops, running shoes, hiking shoes, dress shoes (for dining out)
- T-shirts
- Sweater or sweatshirt and a jacket for cool evenings
- Shorts
- Cotton pants & jeans
- A dressy outfit for dining out (more than one if you’ll be dining out frequently)
- Hat & Sunglasses
- Bathrobe or beach cover-up
- Bathing suit(s)
- Pajamas & slippers
Toiletries
Don’t forget your essential toiletries. Visit a drug store well in advance and get travel sized versions of everything. Not only will it save space in your packing, you can leave it behind when you leave, giving you more room to pack souvenirs.
- Toothbrush and toothpaste
- Hair brush, mousse, gel or other hair pro (more…)
The Best Family Vacation For A Teenager
Friday, April 16th, 2010There’s nothing like a nice family vacation. Get away and spend some quality time together. Because you love your kids – even the teenagers. No really. They may give you attitude and pretend they don’t know you at the mall, but you still want them along on a family get-away.
And summer is the perfect time for a trip. In the city it’s too hot and sticky to stay at home, and the kids are out of school. You need to get out of town. For many families, the summer vacation is an annual ritual. Renting a cottage for a week on a Muskoka lake can be a great choice – when the kids are small. After all, you can sit in a lawn chair and read while they play in the sand, all day long.
But when your kids hit the teen years, all bets are off. When they’re four you might get away with a week without a phone, the internet or the mall. But when they’re 14? No way.
And there is nothing more terrifying than a bored teenager.

They can make everyone’s life a misery without breaking a sweat.
Do you really want to waste your vacation butting heads with a teenaged terror? Listen to them complain about lack of cell service? Moaning about nothing to do? Whining about how bored they are? No. I didn’t think so.
