Indy’s Packing Tips:
• Tie bright bandanas around luggage handles to find easier at airport
• Weekly activity schedule for Desire Pearl can be found at
http://blog.desireresorts.com/weekly-ac ... ire-pearl/• Pack all lotions and liquids in double bagged Ziploc bags. I once had sun-block open during travel and this method saved all my shoes
• Pack clothing in a bag separate from all liquids and lotions in case of leakage. I pack liquids/lotions/toiletries/shoes etc in one bag and clothing in another
