As we plan for a 5 day journey, myself and the girls, I am starting to pack my bags..... Now we travel by train and bus, so we must pack light and wisely. Two things I always bring help me feel a bit cleaner and safer on the road with young ones.
I adore Seventh Generation's Disinfecting Wipes http://www.seventhgeneration.com/Disinfectants?gclid=CLq226maprECFcHb4Aod-ztzfw. Now for home, I keep a bottle of the spray for cleaning in the bathroom, but for the road, when traveling light, a small tub of the wipes is perfect..... great for sanitizing the toilet seat of the bus or train, when needed. My other staple for my backpack for any journey we take is EO Wipes to Go (a 10 pack of their wipes) http://www.eoproducts.com/Products/Hand-Sanitizer-Wipes---Lavender-10-ct-Resealable-Pack__636874121338.aspx. These are great for sanitizing hands for eating, when there is no bathroom (or clean one) in sight.... So these definitely are a must for us. Both products have ingredients better than any such products I have seen.... no triclosan or other harmful anti-bacterials.... just natural botanical based ones in the Seventh generation product (from thyme oil) and alcohol and lavender in the EO product.
We always bring some water too. For traveling, the mini Poland Springs waters are our favorite and easily accessible. And we stop prior to leaving at Whole Foods or a natural market, to get some good emergency foods, some bars, crackers, corn crisps, etc... just in case we can't find food fast enough for hungry mouths....
The day of the trip, we make sandwiches and cut up veggies for the journey. We pack our favorite liquid soap in small containers and grab clothes, toiletries, etc., and then we are ready to hit the road....
So, as we are unsure whether we will have internet access, this may be the last post until Wednesday, so if you enjoy these daily posts, let me know.... consider Joining the Site as a follower.... Click on the blue rectangle to do so. And in the next few days, click on any past blog posts you did not read, or give yourself a refresher..... Send in comments for future topics you would like to learn more about.... And I will post again on Wednesday of next week, if not sooner.... So until then, I wish you a great day and week ahead!
