Comic-Con and Michigan Packing

I am terribly excited about Husband and my adventure to San Diego Comic-Con weekend followed by the lovely Moller Cottage on Crystal Lake in Frankfort, Michigan as well as some time in St Louis, Missouri. I'll be gone for a week and a half.

In the world of packing, this is quite a challenge in selection and quantity. There are two very excellent facts to keep in mind though: A) SDCC bags can go home with Aaron Aranda! and B) Fortunately, there is a washer dryer every where we will visiting! YAY! So much easier!

To Be Packed in SDCC BAG

Captain Jack Cosplay
Roxy Richter Cosplay
Hiccup Cosplay
Pajamas
A comfy and appropriate dress in case I am sick of Cosplaying during a day.
A go out party dress for all the rad parties (Preferably, designed after Cat Bug)

To be pack for Michigan/STL

Travel Outfit – Worn 2 times -  Sunday (7/27), Friday (8/1) and Sunday (8/3) for flight
Sundress 1 – Worn 2 times - Monday (7/28) and Thursday(7/31) - Black with Hearts
Sundress 2 – Worn 2 times - Tuesday (7/29) and Saturday (8/2)  - Blue Maxi Dress + White Tank
Sundress 3 – Worn 2 times - Wednesday (7/30) and Sunday (8/3) - Church Appropriate/Dinner Out 
Swimsuit and cover up dress – Worn 4 times - Black 1 piece and Brazil 2 piece, 
Running Outfit
Pajamas
Sweater and Leggings (as it gets chilly up north in the evening)
Running Shoes
Flats
Flip Flops


Besides packing clothes and cosplays, the other important thing to be packed are snacks and food as you might recall from this post.

Great news is that I am super duper fortunate as my best friend, who is doing a fitness test group thing that gives her premade meals, gave me a grip of lightweight food containers. These will be great for taking the food to the Con and then being able to just throw the plastic in the recycle bin. :) Hooray!

I love Husband because he is honest and reasonable when it comes to food and Conventions or travel. He is on board to save a bit of money (as wells as ingesting less preservatives/low value foods) while we are out and about. Not to say we don't indulge in a hot dog now and then, but saving ourselves from eating that way every meal every day that we are away is a good thing.

So everything is planned, now I just need to put it in a bag and ready it the trek!


A special request: Pray that we can get a hotel for Comic-Con weekend. We have a back up place to stay, but I don't want to inconvenience friends with late nights and possible raucousness.
