True... because I have to make sure I have room for all the stuff I'm bringing back... and this is a huge suitcase.

If you are buying a lot, you might want to look into shipping some of your stuff back...

No, no, no, no...don't you remember the mousekecouple's trevails with the kitties trying to pack themselves so they could go see Mickey and Minnie too?!
We usually do all the packing in one sitting for this reason. However, we start putting things together much sooner. (Keep certain items separate in the closet, drawers...etc) Otherwise, we will end up with three kitties in the bags and nothing else! :shock: ;) I think they would be more interested in chasing after Mickey and Minnie. They are mice after all ;) (although I think seeing a 5 foot mouse would bring out their ostrich instincts rather than kitty instincts... :shock: ) Maybe they'd like to see Marie. ;)

Yeah, I can only imagine the cats' faces when faced with a life-sized mouse :shock: Marie might have the same effect on them though! :lol:

Luckily, I have a very well behaved cat who stays out of my luggage and empty boxes...

Luckily, Len90, it will be the same humid heat in August as July, so you're not missing out...or is that unluckily? :wink: :mickey:

Finding a silver lining even in humid heat, eh? That's the spirit, Len90!
