Comments on: Marriott Gift Card Contest http://travelingmamas.com/marriott-gift-card-contest/ best family travel advice, cruise tips, romantic getaways, girlfriend trips, travel gear reviews, and all things holiday and vacation by mamas for moms Fri, 03 Feb 2012 22:07:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: eileen marie http://travelingmamas.com/marriott-gift-card-contest/#comment-19776 eileen marie Thu, 25 Mar 2010 01:55:10 +0000 http://travelingmamas.com/?p=5272#comment-19776 We love to travel, & we do so a lot! My favorite travel tip is to prepare a skeleton itinerary for each day using travel books (we love DK and Lonely Planet). Find some recommended restaurants in the books and go to ones that are near the sight-seeing locations you'll be hitting that day. There is a lot less confusion and disorganization, and we usually get to see (& eat!) everything on our list that way. Also, never forget to pack TP, sunblock, hand sanitizer, and a bandanna (use it for your hair, as a little towel when restrooms don't have any-the possibilities are endless!). Happy traveling!

Also try and put at least a change of clothes in your carry on because you just never know even if its just a tshirt and a pair of leggings .
