What are you packing for Atlanta?

Alright, so talking with a friend of mine, it became painfully obvious that she and I had different packing methods for Atlanta.

So, what are you packing for Atlanta? Here's my list:

Three T-shirts (all FIRST, naturally--exact ones TBD)
Pants to match
Three pairs of underwear
Three pairs of socks
Shoes (which I'd be wearing)
Toothbrush, toothpaste, floss, deodorant
Shaver
Laptop
iPod

(Note that I'm driving in Wednesday and driving back Saturday--hence I'm only packing to have fresh clothes Thursday-Saturday)

Re: What are you packing for Atlanta?

Shirts, jeans, shoes, underwear, socks, toothpaste, toothbrush, floss, Act rinse, shampoo and conditioner (can't stand hotel stuff), soap, moisturizing lotion, sunblock, meds (motrin, sudafed, etc.), pillow for bus, snacks for bus, a book or two, camera, batteries and charger, cell phone and charger, Dave says 'That's Pimp too!' buttons, games: Give Me the Brain, Lord of the Fries and Killer Bunnies, license, credit card, cash, brush, scrunchy, deodorant, and this weird little thing that's a cross between a hair dryer and a curling brush so that my bangs don't stick up in the air.

I think that covers it. It sounds like a lot, but it it isn't really, it all fits into a small suitcase and a backpack (well, with the addition of Killer Bunnies and the snacks for the bus, I may have to have two backpacks).

Re: What are you packing for Atlanta?

Clothes: Team shirts, extra shirt for Sunday, Boxers, socks, jeans
Hygene: Toothbrush, toothpaste, floss, shaver (if there is room, not all that critical)
Other: Cards, food, gameboy (if room, not very critical), homework (AP tests start one week after championships )

Oh yeah, I have to fit everything in a carry-on so I don't miss the webhug. Our team gets in ATL at 10:45 AM and George (DCA_Fan) and I are going to go straight to MARTA and hope we make it. Hopefully there will be no delays. Can you believe they are routing us through Minneapolis to get from California to Georgia?

See everybody there (if I ever survive our ultra-red-eye).

Yes, I can believe it. The airlines usually like to take you way out of the way--Chicago, for instance. Our team somehow received the only sensible routing that I've heard of from LAX to ATL (other than non-stop). We have a half-hour stop in Dallas-Ft. Worth. It appears to be about 100 miles south of the shortest direct route (following a great circle).

Hey, everyone who's flying, maybe I didn't look closely enough, but I haven't seen listed the ONE THING that you need to get on your plane: Photo ID. (And get your boarding pass in the airport if you can't get it online the night before.)

Our routing on the way back is a lot better, a one hour stop in Memphis.

Photo ID: Check
