very small cosmetic bag as first aid kit which includes bandages, neosporin, first aid cream, aspirin, imodium, prescription medication, and a list of English speaking Dr.s in Europe. (small scissors used to be in there)

Kay~everytime we go to a new city, I look up the closest "American" hospital,and find English speaking doctors! I think because our son was in Nepal and had altitude sickness combined with one of those bacterial things that we never want to get! and when he got to the hospital,courtesy of a very worried hotel clerk, the nurse that came out to the cab to help him inside was from NJ!! What relief to hear NJ English spoken:)

Coif <BR>Hope that you don't carry that butane for your curling iron on the plane with you. That would be extremely dangerous; you do know that???

A night light for the bathroom... it casts just the right amount of light so I can find my way around both the bedroom and the bathroom and avoid turning on other lights.

I love the night light idea! I'll be buying one today to take on my next trip.

Don't forget--the plug and current configuration is different in the US and Europe. Might want to wait and buy it there.
