Although this trip to Scandinavia will only be 17 days vs 29 days in Scotland, it doesn’t seem i can pack any less.  There are just some basic things that must go no matter the length.  Toiletries for one, at least one pair of stockings for layering in case it gets cold and a sweater or poncho for same reason.  Two pairs of shoes, walking/hiking and another for slightly dressier occasion.  From there it depends on the resources you may have at your destination.  I try to make accommodations so that the washing facilities are spaced so that i can wash all the clothes at some point.

My Coleman spinner carry-on weighs 6.3 lbs and the total weight is now 20.5 lbs which also includes my small computer, cord and plug and a book to read.  Still a bit heavy, but not sure where to make cuts. Hmmmm.

First trip with a spinner – looking forward to trying it.

Cheers!
