Getting Ready for Kalahari! 🏖️

I’m officially packing for a one-night, two-day trip to Kalahari in Sandusky, Ohio — and I’m way too excited! This is going to be a fun little escape, and I want to make sure I have everything I need for the waterpark, the overnight stay, and of course, the memories.

🎒 So, What’s Going in My Bag?

Here’s the must-haves I’m throwing into my suitcase:

• Swimsuit (actually bringing two just in case one’s soaked)
• Comfy PJ’s — because lounging after the waterpark is a must
• Extra clothes for the second day and backup options
• Waterproof phone carrier — because I will be taking pics on the slides, no doubt

🛁 Bathroom Basics

Even though it’s just a quick trip, I’m still bringing my usuals:

• Toothbrush & toothpaste
• My own shower essentials — yes, I’m that person who brings their own shampoo
• And most importantly, my favorite lotion: Sweet Pea from Bath & Body Works 🌸 (Can’t leave home without it after a long day in chlorine!)

🧼 Other Essentials I’m Not Forgetting:

• My hairbrush (because waterpark hair is no joke)
• All my chargers — phone, earbuds, you name it
• And a little journal so I can jot down all the fun and random moments while they’re still fresh

Why I’m So Hyped

There’s just something about packing that makes everything feel real. I’ve been looking forward to this mini trip, and even though it’s just one night, I plan to make the most of it. Slides, snacks, sleep — repeat. Plus, getting away for even a day or two is always worth it.

Now if I can just get everything to fit in one bag…

Stay tuned — I’ll definitely be sharing the highlights soon!
