On the third day of WYD, my dear Lord pray for me...
Following further consultation from Southwark's veteran pilgrim Vickie, she has compiled a list of Dos and Donts (which I have commented on) for next week that I thought people may find helpful:
Do:
1. Bring a travel radio, vital for Mass with the Pope.
2. Sunscreen Sunscreen Sunscreen! (Also, found this great sun protection thing for your hair from Lee Stafford- other hair brands are available).
3. Bring things to swap, even if they are homemade, you will be meeting lots of people from lots of different countries and having things to swap is essential.
4. A journal
5. Travel games (I'm planning to pack Peppa Pig playing cards)
Don't:
1. Bring a Hairdryer, Straighteners, curlers or any other hair paraphernalia (it's going to be 40 degrees, by the time you are out the shower your hair will be dry).
2. Too many clothes, pile up what you want to take and then put half of it back, it's 8 days, 3 bottoms and 3 tops are all you need, learn to mix and match! (Not sure I can manage this one Vickie- but I have packed vest tops and they don't take up much space, do they?)
If you haven't already seen the official WYD rucksack, head over to the SCYS Fb page and have a look at the goodies you'll be getting in just over a week.
Praying it doesn't rain this weekend (family wedding),
