"Hi everyone. I'm Russ Handler, travel expert, and I just love a good trip to Cancun. Don't you? There's a couple of things you want to keep in mind when you head to Cancun. You're going to want to pack some things in advance. First of all, I'm going to start with a map. You're going to want to know where you're going and where the best places to hang out are going to be so I always carry a guide map with me. That's the first thing I put in my luggage for international travel. Make sure you have all your documents in place as well and in a safe place on your person or in your bag. Now, it's all about the sun and the fun. Much of what you're going to be doing in Cancun is either shopping or taking a ride around some beautiful places or majority of it right there on the beach. So that's why I'm going to suggest lots and lots of sunscreen. You're going to need it from the moment you leave your apartment or your hotel in the morning, to the moment the sun goes down. Literally, you want to apply it all day long. Buy it in advance at your home. It's usually cheaper, a lot cheaper to do so, and then in the evening times, I recommend having lots of bug spray on hand as well. This again, another inconvenience once you get there that could cost you a little bit more, if not a lot more, than it does at your home town. So those are some of the essential things you need to pack for your trip to Cancun. I'm Russ Handler and that's how you do it."
