MOM with "pack mule" (a.k.a. husband) + kids that can read - 2 hours
MOM with "pack mule"( a.k.a. husband) - 3 hours
MOM with kids that can read - 4 hours
MOM alone - 6-8 hours (This method is highly discouraged - May cause extreme grumpiness)
Anytime we decide to take a little vacation (which involves staying at a hotel) I take a few deep breaths and repeat..
There's no place like home -
There's no place like home -
There's no place like home ...
(BTW.. This doesn't work - even if you click your heels. So GET PREPARED!)
AND THEN... I begin feverishly making a batch of Chocolate Chip oatmeal Cookies and/or Biscotti. While the goods are in the oven I boil a box of pasta and make a VAT of Mae's favorite Sushi Rice :)
I will list things that I DO, BAKE, and PACK below. Feel free to copy and paste into your very own spreadsheet with a "check box" next to it. It's what we do!!!
The following is for a 2-night stay at a hotel with an outdoor pool. I will add sections for variations (such as an indoor pool, a longer stay, no breakfast bar etc... ) I have many more articles planned: "How to attack Disney" and "How to enjoy Seaworld" in Orlando, Florida as well as "How to Move a family across the country".
