Ten Things to Bring On Plane

We are officially counting down to go to Japan. But one thing I'm not looking forward to is the long flight there: how does 14 hours sound? The last three hours is always the worst. Whenever I fly somewhere, I carry these items in my purse to meet my needs.

1. iPhone: for music and games.

   

   I'm on level 77 of Candy Crush Saga!
   
   

2. Snacks: sweet, savory, sour, crunchy and chocolatey....

   

   This should cover it.
   
   

3. Gum and mints: I chew gum like crazy when I get nervous on a plane. 
   
4. A bottle of water: you never know how long you might get stuck on a tarmac.
5. Lip balm: a must for the dry air.
6. Hand cream: a must for the dry air.
7. Hand sanitizer: need I say more?

   

   Moisturize and sanitize!
   
   

8. Facial masks: don't want to breathe in that nasty air if I could help it.

   

   Japanese facial masks that are designed to fit your face comfortably.
   
   

9. Packs of tissues: what a nice feeling to know you have these nearby! I always bring enough to share with my husband whose pocket isn't big enough to carry anything!

   

   "Are you going somewhere, Mommy?"
   
   

10. Magazines and books: I get American magazines going there and Japanese magazines coming back.

    

    Gotta keep up with current entertainment news!
    
    

Good thing I have a big purse! Sometimes I put all these and more in a small duffle bag and place it where I can put my feet on.
