Feature: 51 Travel Essentials Travel Experts Never Go on Vacation Without

With summer right around the corner, we figured that many of you are looking for "must have" travel items for your summer vacation.  Yes, there's a Christmas tree in the photos below, but that's because one of our "must have" items came at Christmas time: I bought the Rume Garment Travel Organizers  (GTO) as part of my family's Christmas gifts, and they are a hit because they really work!  With My Cruising Family's next family vacation right around the corner, we are about to pull out our Rume GTO, which allow us to pack lots of clothing in one light garment bag that then folds to fit the standard sized carry-on. 

The Rume has one garment bag section, and four attached packing cubes, so it fits a lot!  We first used them when packing for our 14-day Caribbean cruise  earlier this year.  Due to the length of that vacation, we used more than the Rume GTO to pack our clothes, but for the average family vacation, we honestly think that these are sufficient.  We will let you know, in detail, what we pack in our Rume GTO for this upcoming 5-day trip.  So, stay tuned!

As you can see, this week's blog post is not the traditional My Cruising Family blog post, as, this week, we invite you to check out my (Peta-Gaye Daniel, also known as "Mommy" to My Cruising Family) feedback on the Rume GTO in Lindsey Lanquist's SELF Magazine article, as well as feedback from other travel experts regarding their "must have" travel items.  Our feature is listed at #49.  Check it out!
