Quick Itinerary, SNOW, last minute answers.

Hey gang!

Quick glance at our AWESOME itinerary! Note these are just the big highlights... as we stroll the streets we will have impromptu moments of discovery, shopping and general tourism!

It looks like it may snow on Thursday, make sure to pack a few pairs of socks extra and have a big coat. The week gets colder as it goes on, so packing the coat may be a good idea.

Remember that you do not need to pack towels, blankets etc. The hotel/ airplane has these for you.

Any packing or trip questions please email me.. vlee@alvinisd.net
