To think we could get away with just one 20 kg...

...suitcase for a family of four going on a 5 day city break visit? Dh thinks we can; I'm not so sure. The dc are 8 & 11 if that helps!

Many thanks for your thoughts on this!

One year when we went away I packed three outfits per person. Having to do so much washing did not add anything enjoyable to the holiday, and we ended up shopping for more socks, PJs etc.

This year we packed about 5-6 outfits and 3 pairs of shoes each, and it's been just right. We've done 3 weeks in 2 very different climates, there are 4 of us, and we probably have about 40kg of luggage altogether.
